Thanks, Norman. I have done that now, and it works as I wanted it to. I have also set a : DEV_USE 1,windrive$&'_' ( windrive$ being a variable obtained from user input ) So that DEV1_ can be the psuedo device for any windrive number that is assigned when using software like QDT and Launchpad. I could have set it up this way before, yet it is only now that I have seen the need to have the flexibility available. It shows how useful SMSQ/E is as an OS. -- Malcolm Cadman _______________________________________________ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm
