If you running rn under a UNIX operating system (Which most likely you are), then you must check the directory that the rn command is found in. For instance, on my system the rn command is found in a directory: /usr/local/bin, and can not be accessed from my home directory. The way to get around this is to use the SET PATH command (preferably set up in a .login file so you don't have to type the command every time you log on). Find out about this, and your problems should be solved. -Steve ----------------------------------------------------------------- Steve Juhasz gints@NCoast.ORG -----------------------------------------------------------------
