After pkunpak started testing the archive, DOS 4.01 interrupted with Sharing Violation reading drive A: Windows and pkunpak are on c:, the archive is on (subst) e: and I hadn't accessed a: since rebooting. I tried the same again with the same result. Share was not explicitly loaded. Any suggestions? Also, can someone please post just what Share is supposed to do; the discriptions in DOS manuals indicate that Share does nothing unless you are networked, but I've heard people say otherwise. -- <================================><===============================> || Christopher Landers || PURDUE UNIVERSITY - KRAN 708 || || Krannert Computing Center || West Lafayette, IN 47907 || <=================== landers@zeus.mgmt.purdue.edu ================>
