The source code that requires upgrading is worked upon by using the PATCH program, supplying the patch file to it. The DIFF program is found in DIF26BN.ZIP and the PATCH program is found in PAT21BN.ZIP both are on the oak.oakland.edu site. Regards, Ron. ******************************************************************** | Author..............
