Joe,

I sincerely appreciate yor help. There doesn't seem to be very many dos 
users out there anymore, so it is a bit refreshing to run into one every 
now and then. Might you know of any other versions of dos that are more 
dynamic than PCDOS? I mean, with more memory and multi-tasking 
capabilities.

Regards,
Riv
