O'Rourke) Organization: Cal Poly State University -- San Luis Obispo Lines: 18 I'm not an expert, but in your variable declairations you have.... dir1:dir2: this won't work because since there is no leading : on dir1 MPW thinks it's a volume identifier rather than a directory ID. Two possible solutions exists. prefix the first directory with a : so that MPW will search for the first dir in the current directory {much like ./ in unix}, or give a full path name to the dir such as {MPW}::. I hope this helps. -- David M.
