Is this just a catalog of the files in the CD?
The REXX script I wrote FLIST1.ZIP will catalog a CD the same as a HD.  It 
looks in ZIPS too, and would take a long time to look in a couple of hundred, 
and the database would be pretty huge I guess.  Zipping up the database and 
looking up things via a pipe through a GREP works good on my database of 
around 50,000 files, I reckon you do the same sort of thing.
I have an E-mail sitting here with the thing attached for you, but for some 
reason, my ISP won't send it... worked last time I used it, not sure whats up 
with that. I'll get it to you one of these days.
                                              Jack
