Paul, I get things archived by CD'ing to the directory I want archived, and typing: LHARC -M -X A PATH:XXXX.LZH * or the Directory can be replaced with file 1 file 2 file 3, etc. ……Betty

Paul, I didn't quite understand your message – think maybe something did not get to CIS just as you meant to send it. You can archive a directory without having to list each file in it. Just CD to the directory first. Then, type: LHARC A PATH:FILE.LZH * That will archive all of the files in that directory. It will not, though, archive any subdirectories. For those, you would have to list each subdirectory: SUBDIRECTORY1/* SUBDIRECTORY2/* etc. ……Betty
