- JW.By the way, I also noticed that PCBoard is not creating a
- .USERNET.DAT file like it's supposed to when in multiline
- .mode. Instead, a file called "USERNET.XXX" is created in the
- .\PCB\MAIN\ directory. Why is it doing this?
-
- I can't help you with your SHARE problems I'm afraid.. but the
- USERNET.XXX is the new format for the old USERNET.DAT file so
- is perfectly ok.. CDC changed it late last year to accomodate some new
- features..... hence some programs writtem for USERNET.DAT won't work
- until they've been updated as the format is different.
