I thought, "No problem, I have Executor!" I did have a problem. When I double-clicked on "a:" in the drive selection bar, i got a blank window. Only now I figured out that if I had double-clicked on "Untitled:" the real name of the disk, I could easily read it. I think the possibility of having both "a:" and a named disk on the bar makes it confusing and possible for a misunderstanding. I thought that Executor had a problem and upgraded to q6 (I haven't been getting every BleedingEdge lately). Is this a feature or just a possibilty for misunderstanding? ;-) -- Philip Zeyliger, Registered Student D/L Executor User -- ,'^\ _ _ _ _ _ ,-----------------------------. ; :.\ Philip Zeyliger | |/// \| U ||| |On all Internet Chess Servers| \ \ ~ philz@best.com | (( o ) ||o\ /) telnet ics.onenet.net 5000 | [___] |_|\\\_/|_n_||_/ '-----------------------------'
