Mine looks like this: set comspec=c:\command.com If you use the server it should look something like this: map ins s1:=\public\dos (or wherever it is) set comspec=s1:command.com You should probably ask your sysadmin about setting this up for you if you have one. good luck, Will -- ********************************************************************** *Will Sadler Indiana University Law School-Bloomington * *will@ogre.cica.indiana.edu wsadler@copper.ucs.indiana.edu * **********************************************************************
