Here is my attempt: ----- Write Status To Decode BinHex "QUANTUM 80:Communications:downloads:*.hqx" destination "QUANTUM 80:New Stuff" quickunstuff "QUANTUM 80:Communications:downloads:*.sit" replace erase "QUANTUM 80:Communications:downloads:*.hqx" erase "QUANTUM 80:Communications:downloads:*.sit" ----- Now what this unbinhexes the files okay, but writes files with an extra suffix of ".dhx" added to the file name. (Why this of all things?) Can anyone help me with this? The support staff said "We'll get back to you! Thanks Jim Meiss
