MP>  I couldn't get the dos version to work it gave the following
MP> when I type "cvs checkout sr".

MP> CVS.EXE checkout: Updating sr
MP> CVS.EXE checkout: cannot create read lock in repository `e:\src\sr': No 
MP> such file or directory
MP> CVS.EXE [checkout aborted]: read lock failed - giving up

MP> e:\src\sr does exist  and I've set the following.

MP> USER=Parker
MP> CVSROOT=e:\src

You need to create e:\src\sr before you can check out "sr".  What
directory were you in when you issued the cvs checkout command?
Hopefuly not e:\src!!!

BFN.  Paul.
