----- Contrary to what Greg said I think the menus on CIS are very useful for certain functions, especially downloading files however that does not preclude you from using direct commands as some would have you think. Do NOT change your setup from menus to the command mode as they suggest, you can use commands at any prompt! For example if you are at the menu prompt in library #2 and want to go to library #7 simply type DL7 and hit ENTER, likewise you can go to any library from the Top menu by typing DL# plus ENTER. Also if you have chosen a xmodem protocol upon your first download (the menu does not give a choice of protocols after the first download) and wish to use the capture mode later you can do so by typing DOWNLOAD filename /PROTOCOL:CAPTURE and the capture mode will be in effect until you change your protocol again. Hope this helps, Robert
