The header files are in Dell V.4, but I don't see aiowait or asiowait in the masterliblist file, which shows all the routines in every library. Don't know if they only got half, or if they took some out, or if the async stuff has those names redefined in the header files. I will look, but not this morning. -- bill davidsen - davidsen@sixhub.uucp (uunet!crdgw1!sixhub!davidsen) sysop *IX BBS and Public Access UNIX moderator of comp.binaries.ibm.pc and 80386 mailing list "Stupidity, like virtue, is its own reward" -me
