Dave: Actually when I changed my script from a control-C to a carriage-return I put in a five-second wait before the carriage-return because I was copying from another script that had one there. Now that I think of it, the old script had no wait, and it had a control-C followed by a carriage return. So it's the wait that makes it work in either case. This time I'll try a wait followed by a control-C. If you get this message, it worked! I wrote the script with EDLIN, which lets me quote control characters (haven't figured out how to get it to delete linefeeds yet — ah for TECO!) but I was only sure the control-C was really there when I dumped the file with DEBUG. Thanks for the clue! BFT
