..(CONTINUED FROM PREVIOUS MESSAGE) Again, I think that all the discussion on assigning logical devices is peripheral in your case, because Aegis Draw simply doesn't use such a device name. You can indeed assign any NAME: you wish to any device or directory you wish, and AmigaDOS will handle it for you, but only if you or a program specifically requests to talk to the NAME: (which is not happening in this case). Lastly, I don't _think_ it ever makes sense to assign a NAME: to an actual filename. Although this works in limited ways, the Assign command is meant to refer to devices and/or directories. Hope this all helped. Let me know if you have any further problems. Joel Halbert
