DCL conveniently converts everything to upper case. Many anonymous FTP sites are run on Unix machines which are case sensitive.

Also, directory and file names might have to be in quotes . . . you'll just have to experiment. ___ __ |\ |\ | / \ SirOtto -- Gallant Knight of a rather large, squarish | \ | \ | / table someplace in the West Panhandle of Florida. | \ | \ |--< | \| \|___\____/ Michael E.
