SO is mine, so that won't be a problem.  You'll need listmod and fgrep386. 
IF you have trouble getting the dependencies through a bfds site near you
let me know, I"ll email attach 'em uuencode.

Btw i"ll just send the batch itself in the text of a message, make
sure it can go. I have better luck with uuencode than mime, but if you
really need HOrst's enhancements or fgrep386 let me know.

Maybe so.  DOes seal produce a text file of all areas you handle?  I know
sqafix does.  I only ran seal briefly back in the '90's and switched to
another areafix. THerefore I don't recall much about it.
