Bruce, it is warming up a little here.

 JP> The .zipping is done via this call to it in BWPACK.BAT.

 BC> Jean, I think the problem is that you are confusing the
"ZIP" label 
 BC> in the batch file with the PKZIP.EXE program name. 

        I do not think so, Bruce.

 BC> GOTO END
 BC> :ZIP
 BC> C:\BWAVE\BWREPFIX.EXE %3
 BC> C:\BWAVE\PKZIP -ex %2 %3
 BC> GOTO END

        Here is mine:
GOTO END
:ZIP
c:\Blue\bwrepfix.exe %2
c:\bin\pkzip -ex %2 %3
GOTO END

        I have done a BIG exercise here, I copied your .bat to mine,
  in toto. Let us see what happens. I am back in the reply mode, it
  seems to have packet this one reply ok but still no F/M saved.

 BC> I see you have been logging on from Doc's Place.
 BC> Has that BBS been having any problems? 

        Not that anybody mentioned, yet.

 Sig: On this Sunday, let us have a
  nice thought for peace on earth.
