Hello Ted,
 BB>> It would be cool if 4dos tried to load a btm before a bat.
 TM> It does! I made two batches in the following order:
 TM> :: TROEP.BAT echo this is the BAT. :: end
 TM> :: TROEP.BTM echo this is the BTM. :: end
 TM> Then when I typed TROEP, the answer was: this is the BTM.
     Nice, I mean cool. So...will it always do this (path aside)?
     Is it documented?
     I just ran some tests. I got the same result as you, Ted.
     cool.
Regards, Barry
