That can do it, Carolyn, though it sounds like extra work. You can make
it less laborious by omitting the exits from Juno and from Windows,
starting Juno from a BATch file that records this information. Easier,
though less complete, why not use the download duration and speed from
your log, which you can see, cut, and paste from inside Juno?

As you see from multiplying secs by cps, this .mbg compressed message
file was about 8 Kbytes. Getting this information is very easy (it
didn't take me five seconds from pulling down the menu to pasting into
this message) and there is not much reason for failing to obtain it. The
extra data supplied by your method will sometimes make it worth the extra
effort.

It has been almost a year, but as I recall the Win 3.1 File Manager
easily shows file sizes and other details. You can also open a DOS
window to get this data, which is my preferred method. And of course a
BATch file from within Windoze can collect it automatically.
