Don It did the same thing as before. My system includes The Amiga 1000, 512k, 2
drives, Sony 1201 monitor, US Robotics 1200 modem. addbuffers df0: 70
addbuffers df1: 50 setfont commodore echo -2ttt "Aterm 7.2 Disk" echo "" echo
"Last Date Entered Was :" date echo "" echo "" echo "Please Enter New Date As
DD-MMM-YY If Above Is Not Correct Date" echo "" echo "" failat 21 date > nil: ?
if fail echo "Try Again" echo "" date > nil: ? endif echo "" echo "" echo "Date
Now Set At :" date ;date to sys:s/last-startup-date echo "" echo "" info loadwb
echo "" echo " Loading Aterm 7.2" run Aterm7.2 That is the startup. I have the
date to sys command set as a remark because it won't work. I sure hope this is
of some help. I sure miss having the last date on the system. Thank you And
Have A Good Day……..

Ken,
Change that line to read :
date > now
It _should_ work.

Ken,
I just tried that command (though not in a startup sequence) and it seemd I
seem to recall you saying that it worked with another name? Have you tried to
another disk or to RAM: as a test?
On a side note, I see you are using my echo program. You might be interested to
know that you can suppress linefeeds with a "-s" switch, and get the date right
after the "Last startup was:" message, and that you don't need quotes for most
strings.
