Jim,

In reguards to that 3 nibble field near the start of a directory.  You
stated that it was 7FF.  I've played around with the ATTACH command and
have discovered this:  

For the HOME directory:  this field is the count of the Library objects
that are attached to the HOME directory, including the two standard
libraries 2 and 1792.

For subdirectories:  this field is 7FF if no library has been attached to
the subdirectory.  Otherwise 
Otherwise it is the library number of the attached library.

I hope this additional info is of use...
