Dan, The return code of 20 means it's not a executable file. That is true of the vast majority of our files *as downloaded* Normally, the files are compressed so they're smaller so they take less time to download and thus…cost you *less* money to download. LHA138.RUN is an execption to that rule. It is a self extracting file…meaning you just type it's name and it decompresses itself. How are you trying to download the file? What settings are you using and how are you telling CIS to send it (Xmodem, CIS B protocol, etc.) Also, what terminal program are you using? Don
