The difference would be that the first argument would be a file descriptor (or the VMS equivilant thereof), as opposed to a pointer to a "FILE". By going after these entry points, you risk having your program break when DEC gives you new libraries. Farrell T. Woods Datacube Inc. Systems / Software Group 4 Dearborn Rd.
