Sysop, I have downloaded LHARC.EXE with XMODEM/binary twice now. When I change the name to LHARC and type its name or type <run lharc> I get the error message: Unable to load LHARC File is not an object module. Am I doing something wrong or is there a problem with the file? Thanks, Chris

Chris, LHARC does not respond to the RUN command. You need a file for it to work on. Suppose that you have both LHARC.EXE (renamed to LHARC) in RAM: and you have a file there named NEWFILE.LZH. Here is how you would use it: MAKEDIR RAM:NEWFILE CD RAM:NEWFILE RAM:LHARC -m -x x RAM:NEWFILE.LZH At this time, the archived file will be unpacked into the directory Ram:Newfile. You might find ARCHLP.EXE, Library 16 of AmigaUser to be helpful. It is a tutorial on the use of several popular archiving programs. Betty

Thanks, Betty. Used to using ARC and ZOO that give messages when typed without an argument. Will give it another try. Chris
