Chip, Hardware spoolers go for in the $200 price range. You can find them a little above and a little below this and the memory typically is 64K standard with options up to 256K. Of course, you need to use either a 2nd serial port or the parallel port for output to the spooler. If you use the parallel port, you'd need a spooler with the parallel input, serial output which should be easy to find or have ordered. As far as downloading the message base, we have a file called (spelling it out) S A V M O N . H L P (I hope your speaker got that right) in Data Library 1. If you need any assistance in getting this file, I'm sure some arrangements can be made. It could lead to significant savings for you. Now, back to the basic problem. ARGO TERM was written by Jez San and he frequents this place. His ppn is 72247,3661. I'll leave him a message asking him to read this thread. He may have a solution for the timeout problem. Don
