I think the person making the original request was looking for a program for the Leading Edge, Model D. As far as I know, Sperry did not sell a PC that is the same as the Model D. I believe you are thinking of the Model M (M is for Mitsubishi), which is the same as the Sperry, but with a different label. I have a Model M and had the same problem when I upgraded to DOS 3.2. I called the Leading Edge support line (1-800-343-6857) and they told me the name of the program I needed, which was available on their bulletin board (1-617-444-9264). The bulletin board had a clock reading program for the Model D also. By the way, as I recall the program I needed had a different name than the one given to me from the 800 number, so a little patience may be required. -- Don Simoneaux Phone: (214) 964-1859 3605 Interlaken Dr. Plano, TX 75075 USENET: ...ihnp4!killer!dons
