Kurt, Sounds like your getting bit by the "when is an ARC file not an ARC file" that spurred a lawsuit in the MessyDOS world. The arc file you have was probably created with PKArc, rather than the "official" Arc program from SEA. The Amiga ARC program is compatible with SEA's program, but now with the PKArc program. Fortunately, there is an 'un-arcer' program for the Amiga by Phil Katz that understands the PKarc formats – I think it's here in LIB 4, and is called (this is going from memory, so I may be off a bit) PKXARC.ARC. Hope this helps….BobR
