I like the style in general, but I have noticed some problems. In particular, I already found one example that seems to be in error. It erodes my confidence a bit about the others. Listing 2.6 on page 28 is supposed to put a directory listing into a file. I doubt that it could...it uses EXECUTE("DIR",0,0). It kind of looks like two examples got mushed together there. Michael
