Hello Alainm,
     I wasn't calling Msdos trash I was speaking of the condition that the
data on the shared drives would be in if both O-S's accessed that same
specific drive.  Anyways, I think you misunderstood my use of "trash".  It
seems that at least one person remarked that they were successfully sharing
the drives with both Ms and Dr-dos's so it's still a little unclear but
perhaps it's not worth the hassle to try adding Ms dos to a Drdos system?
     TAke care,
      Mark
