Thank you Stefan .... I don't mean to clutter the forum with such basic questions, but I haven't goofed around with dos prompt commands since the late 80's. The last decade or so I have to admit I've been trapped in the Microsoft world in my old career as a CPA and Controller. The last time I did any real programming was in the mid 80's with COBOL! I guess I've revealed my age now .... I'm probably old enough to be some of the member's parents!
