Thank you very, very much for your help. I tried using a replacement glob function, but it just froze the program--looks like it was because I forgot to #include crt0.h. I'll give mv a shot...I just hope it uses FAT revision for transfers on the same device. The whole reason I was writing the MOVE replacement was that it didn't check for free space available on the target device, and blindly try to move, whereas XCopy would let me know right away if there wasn't enough space. So I was trying to write a front-end to combine the two, using XCopy for transfers between different devices, and MOVE for transfers on the same device. Anyway, I'm sorry to have bothered you, and thank you once again for your help. More Dilbert Wisdom: "Stupidity is like nuclear power; it can be used for good or evil."
