My problem was that I would get a error stating that the archive file could not be found. It turns out that the archive name has an "_" (underscore) in it. Evidently, UNARC (or CP/M?) doesn't recognize the underscore as a valid file name character. When I renamed the archive, all was well. Thanks to Keith for getting me back on track.
