I don't know if you got my message or not, Victor, but I made the statement 
in one to Michael Kepler (I believe) that you can set up dorinfo in your 
welcome.mec file and everyone who logs on will cause it to be set up.
[link]misc\dorinfo.bbs      is used here on my board.
I will be happy to try to help you get IceEdit working with your Maximus if 
you like. E-mail is probably the fastest, or you can look for the message I 
sent to Michael and it is documented there as to how I use IceEdit (actually 
it is a later version called QuikEdit but works the same way).
Let me know if I can help.
