Hi Harry,
Thank you for the USB link.

I got the thumb drives working in FAT & FAT32 but not the MP3 player 
(which is basically a 128 Mb thumb drive with audio controls, required 
directories and the most useful USB item I have). I guess I still have 
to copy MP3's across my network from OS/2 to my WinXP laptop & then copy 
them to my MP3 player. Messy, but it works & I do have to maintain a 
WinXP laptop for my job ;)

Sincerely,
WarpDavey
