Steve;

re: Multi-users
  Did you modify the original B09 source to allow multiple users?  I just
checked my latest source, and it's exactly the same as the C version. Are you
saying that the program needs to look at the userid and select the relevant
file depending on UID?  I'm kinda in the dark on this one, as both the C and
B09 source call for the dates.file to be in /DD/SYS... i.e. no provision for
multi-dates.files.

re: screen control
  Yeah, the B09 version used TABs to position the cursor, and in C, I opted to
go with the rudimentary calls in SCREEN.H.  What happens on the WYSE?  and more
importantly, can you point me to some generic C calls for positioning the next
output to be at a certain column/row?  I could do a little calculating of the
name field and write say, 60 - n blanks, but I was hoping to eliminate that
sort of stuff.

  Appreciate the feedback!
 ...Jim
