Schema.ini/Recordsetand reading Textfile with file Name containing multiple periods

Hi

I use the Schema.ini with Jet to read text files into recordsets.
I know about file extensions key in the registry for Jet

I can get it to read a filename "in.txt" and it works
but if I put multiple periods in the filename
ie. "in.in.txt" - it doesn't work. Is this a limitaion???

I will probably rename the file but didn't want to do it if I didn't have to

Thanks
