I allready know (realize) the EX_IOERR is an IO error. I'm trying to figure out what is going on to cause it and what exactly the system is trying to tell me that it failed on. Could it not find the file? The directory? Read the file? As you indicated the sysexits.h doesn't tell much. What will the "set -x" do? ================================= Kevin W.
