Art, Whoops! forgot the Save command. S or SU (unformatted) or even MA for mail, just like you normally do. re <message number> Hi there! /ex s re <next message number> testing…testing…etc. Just You /ex su The key to it all is to supply CIS with the information it wants, in the order it wants it. (By the way, I suggest op;ed;edit;p to set EDIT as your editor, and include a op;sm;n;s in the 'script' to keep the messages from stopping after each one. You can make these permanent, as I did, and use a macro to set op;sm;a;s (stop after each) for those times you wish to read online. You can get quite elaborate with what is done, but there are gotchas to it. Noise and deleted messages will make life difficult unless you are careful. However, sometime in the _near_ future, this should not be necessary for you. Hope this helps, Doug
