Robert, You can get a quick reference for DOS quite inexpensively that has a complete list of commands and their syntax, etc. In fact I have one in my archives for DOS 4 that you're welcome to. I'm using DOS 5 now and don't need it. The manuals with 5 are pretty comprehensive. I'll send it with the disks. As for the path seperators, back when I was using a dual floppy, semi-compatible clone and DOS 1.0 back in 1983 or so I was able to change the path separator from \ to /, because that key didn't require a shift combination on this machines keyboad like \ did. I don't remember how it was done and don't know whether it's possible with newer versions of DOS. I haven't seen anything in print about this little trick since. Jon.
