CRIPES!!!!

Why in hades is that NOT indicated? I've been pouring over FILENAME  
and HDIUTIL and DIR and everywhere else I could think of and could

resolved. Nothing like wasting a day....eh?

Thanks, though. Without your passing on that little known fact about  
a well known subject, I'd still be flounder about.

Regards,

Chuck
