True, but the advantage of this program is that it dynamically updates, the information you get from Manifest is valid only at the time that you select the appropriate command off the menu. Also, this program goes straight to the information you want instead of making you wade through a couple of levels of menus to get at it. Finally, this files004.zip also gives you the file offset that the program that has it open is currently reading or writing at. And, one MAJOR consideration for some is that this l ittle goodie is a freebie, and Manifest ain't (but it does give you a lot more information on the state of the system in general too...) --- Steve Gabrilowitz Martin Marietta, Orlando Fl. sag@iplmail.orl.mmc.com Fidonet 1:363/1701
