Kevin,  Still no go.
   Added the check after the F$Wait but still can't pick up the error. We were
forking to the COPY command and gave it the name of a file that was already
there as a test. The COPY command errors out but with a - lbcs err - after the
wait, the program doesn't branch to ERR. Just to make sure we read the B reg.
and see what it has in it, but the numbers seem to be random, not the 218 that
it should be.
   Are we doing this wrong, by forking straight to the COPY command, or should
we be forking to SHELL and then having SHELL call the copy command.


   Still looking for the forest but all these *%&$ trees are in the way ;)

 Larry
