Which message? People, I don't know what it is, but we keep getting messages like this one. "This message". "The machine prints out an error message and then quits". "I try this, but all I get is an error message". I just got a reply back to a question "what is the output of this command (an ls -l)". It read "there are lots of lines of the format -rw-r--r-- (stuff) (size) (date)" This messages exist for a purpose. If you want any help from us, please supply information. Again, please take a look at http://www.lemis.com/questions.html. Greg
