TONY;

   There is a 'trick' to using the RS-OS9 version 1.0 of DYNACALC.

   The manual would have you believe that the file dynacalc.trm should be
in  your current DATA directory.  A much easier way to run DynaCalc is to
set  the  execution  attribute and place the file  dynacalc.trm  in  your
EXECUTION directory.  

   You see DynaCalc looks for dynacalc.trm in your current DATA directory
FIRST.   Then  if  not  found in the DATA directory,  it  looks  in  your
EXECUTION directory LAST.  If not found in either it errors out.

   This  function of DynaCalc is internal to DynaCalc and doesn't  matter
whether you are using the STOCK SHELL or SHELL+.  (I'm using SHELL+)

   With  dynacalc.trm  in your EXECUTION directory you may  run  DynaCalc
anywhere  on your HD tree, with an AIF or otherwise, provided the  target
file has the '.cal' extension.

   Using  a name of 'AIF.cal' for your aif file name will further enhance
your ability to run all of your files automatically while in Multi-Vue.

Best,


Mike
