Hi Paul,
         I don't understand what's happening with PQWK202. You told me
that I had to use QWK2PKT with the -Ttenmin.tbl parameter, and Rod
told me to remove the -T entirely. Both work! Exactly the same... but
to make your way work, I had to copy tenmin.tbl into the work
directory before QWK2PKT could find it

  It works okay if I don't use the -T at all. How does QWK2PKT know
where to find the tenmin.tbl when I don't use the -T parameter? Weird.
It must look in its own directory without -T, and the -T parameter
makes it look in the working directory. Is this right? You might as
well remove the -T parameter in that case.

  The other problem is PKT2QWK. It won't use the control.dat with the
correct address header. It keeps making up one of its own (A BBS,
Somewhere, A. Sysop...) just the way it has all along. I thought you
said you'd fixed that. With PQWK200, I got sick of stuffing around and
hacked PKT2QWK directly, putting your correct address in the exe file
and my name instead of A. Ghost, but there has to be an easier way
than that! Could you add the name header to tenmin.tbl, and have it
read that? Or add an address parameter like the -IYour_Name one?

  It seems inelegant to me, to have two sets of data files: tenmin.tbl
and control.dat when one of them doesn't work anyway.
 
Regards,
Bob
