Does anyone know what a good value is to use for the aspTimeout field of
AFPCommand's paramter block?  IM V-542 says it's the "Retry interval in 
seconds."  Is this the time between retries, or the duration over it will keep
trying before it gives up?  Also, for standard calls, like FPEnumerate, 
FPOpenDir, FPOpenVol, etc, do both the csCode field of the paramBlock and the
first byte of the command buffer contain the code for the command, e.g. 0x19
for OpenDir.  I'm getting -5018 and -5019 errors when I call FPEnumerate, and
I'm having a hard time figuring out why.  I don't know if the above questions
are related to it or not.  I'll see when I get a few responses, and if that
doesn't prove to be the problem, well I guess you'll be hearing from me again.

Please reply to jverdega@cae.wisc.edu.
Thanks in advance!  :-)
