PM> Thanks for the help...I'll put your suggestion to work!
You're welcome.  there's another trick I learned that helps alot.  You can 
add [cls]'s and [enter]'s as well.  I created a file called Clear.Mec that 
contains:
[cls]
An one called Enter.Mec that contains:
[enter]
Then I can do things like:
copy cls.mec+file1.mec+enter.mec  file2.mec
That puts a [cls] on top and an [enter] on bottom, before you MECCA the file.
