The problem with this is, that if you don't give /p, you actually can EXIT COMMAND.COM, and the underlaying IBMBIO.COM will then ask for a new path to the command processor (currently, there are some design flaws, but it works). So, you must not automatically add /p, since else you would disable this feature... Bye, Matthias ------------------------------------------------------------------ Matthias Paul !
