Hi Greg, >> bad command or filename - "d:\arc\" > That command should switch to drive D: > It looks like your dos is NOT switching drives, for some reason. the command to switch to drive D is simply D: , the command to switch to the directory \arc on drive D would be CD D:\ARC , but D:\ARC\ is not a valid command in any DOS version I know. I guess you hang around too often in other OSes so you got confused. ;-) Regards, Udo -- The DR-DOS/OpenDOS Enhancement Project - http://www.drdosprojects.de -- This mail was written by a user of The Arachne Browser - http://arachne.cz/ Arachne at FreeLists -- Arachne, The Premier GPL Web Browser/Suite for DOS --
