I could not Squish Magic Formater, a DC PD program, mind you this is the only program that has caused a problem so far. Get a few problems with DC Plus, you can't set the Base Directory, of the files that you wish to ARC/LZH from, and if more than 2 pages of Extracted data, you get some funny things going on, like click on a File, and a another file comes up in its place, try to click on a Folder to open the files in it, no go, Will not let you have more than 2 folders deep, in a LZH File, is this the LZH Limit ?, unabel to save default paths, path is set from where the Program is run from But still they are Very good progams.. One thing that I like about DC, is they don't just keep updating there stuff every week or days, with some otheres its out of date as soon as you get it ??? -- Roger W.
