THat way its all together and can be accessed using an appropriate path. Just in case some of you don't know, mkdir \dos copy\dos path \dos; Another suggestion: Some older programs don't allow data files to be in separate subdirectories (they don't know about subdirectories). Personally, I like to keep the programs and data files separate. One way to do this is to use the data files on diskette, and copy them to a sub-dir later when you're done. This way you make a backup copy too. (This won't work for huge files that won't fit on the diskettes.) Gunnar Seaburg ...pur-ee!uiucdcs!seaburg
