Hmmmm... I didn't get any mail from you.  But anyway here is what I think you
want.   Since my posting I have found that the C++ Developer tape is also not
understood by update.  Both my C++ tape and my C++ Developer tapes are real
customer releases.  The part number on the C++ Developer tape is B1697-10001
and the Rev is A.00.00.  In the script below I first mounted a 128 user 
license tape and got a table of contents.  Then I switched to the C++ Dev
tape and attempted a table of contents.  Finally, I just use tar to display
the files but I truncated the tar listing.  I get identical results on two
different systems both running 7.0...

I hope that this is what you wanted.  I don't know what happened to your
mail.  If uunet!prcrs!paul doesn't work try paul@prcrs.prc.com
But after my experiences trying to mail to you, I'm not sure that you
can get here from there.

        You can't tell which way the train went by studying its tracks.
