Thanks for the detailed reply, Don. You are, of course right. What I didn't mention about the filenames that the number '124' (for example) is a unique 3 digit number. So there is no chance of a file '1241' or '1249' being part of a filename.
Thanks for all the replies. I managed to solve this satisfactorily.
