I have a friend that can't unwarp a file he has. He only has one disk drive. He needs to know how to unwarp it. He loads up warp and it asks him to insert the dest. disk and after that the CPU asks him to insert his ONLINE! disk. After he does that, the CPU says file not found or something of that nature. If you can help, it would be appreciated. Ray

Ray, The docs that come with WARP are very short – but they do give the exact syntax needed for unwarping, and they tell how to do it with a single drive. Has your friend read them? In case you don't have them, here is the important part: The way to use it is: Read a disk: Warp (Starting track) (Ending track) (File name) EX: Warp 0 79 BackUpWorkBenchV13 Write to a Disk: EX: Warp write backupworkbenchv1.3 Warp is DF0: oriented so if you have only 1 drive, Don't Worry! Of course, you replace "backupworkbenchv1.3" with the name of the disk you are unwarping. Hope this helps.
