Hello Wayne - 

CA>> That would work for WildCat BBS but others would use other
CA>> 'control' words. Most can only do 'add' or 'drop'. WC has
CA>> it's weaknesses but it is a reasonably complete package
CA>> (should be for the price). 

WC> I always liked it. 

You've never had a 'chat' with it's owner-updater then Sanchez,
have you? 

CA>> The information needed is within "door.id" in each QWK
CA>> packet. This OLR will display the info if I type "door"
CA>> but you can read 'door.id' using LIST.COM or notepad etc. 

WC> Have both, now to get to the tape drive and swap notepad
WC> out for a more versitile freeware 32 bit version. 

May I suggest EditPad Lite? It's what I use here and my
daughter swears by it (really).  'Lite' = free version.

WC> BTW you were right two of those tapes failed, after
WC> recovering me but I've yet two more copies to check out. 

Nice of you to confirm that I'm not as crazy as people think I
am when I warn about using tapes for archival storage but there
are times when I really do wish I was wrong.

Failed backups is one of the times I wish I was wrong. ;-)
