JG>> That was handy! I was going to ak you about your sio setup.



 BG> You simply replace the COM.SYS and VCOM.SYS lines with the SIO

Thanks.

 BG> [parameters] etc).



I have the mode statement in my btp.cmd file anyway.



SIO and VSIO are still a couple of days off. BTW, what version are you using?
