After creating a new document Library, it automatically names the library a
name. So I change this and then I go into the library then to modify settings
and change the name in there so that when I go into the library it has the
name in there too. But on every new library there is always a folder under
the name in the doc. library with a #1 next to it. Is there anyway to change
this. I have looked and not found on as of yet.

This doesn't happen in Windows SharePoint Services.

It *does* happen in the earlier product SharePoint Team Services.

[If you mean that the folder name for the document library is
automatically
the same as the (display) name of the document library.]

If you are using that product, please post to the STS newsgroup at
microsoft.public.sharepoint.teamservices.

It works fine if I create a document library by going into add webpart and
then show all lists. But if I go into add webpart and then drag doc library
webpart over to a zone it gives it a name and then behaves like this. I will
just go the other route from now on.

Hi Jay,

Is the site based on the Meeting Workspace template?
If so, this is why you are seeing the 1 folder.
If you add another meeting occurrence to the site, you will also see a 2
folder.
Each numbered folder relates to the meeting instance.
This is how documents are kept separate for each meeting instance in a
meeting series.
Changing the document library to Series Items should either make the folders
go away or cause uploads to stop using them.

-Jim
