   I cheated a little bit.   
   The Directory I found the file in was the one that I used to store the   
   files that were on the SyQuest disks I copied from the 486 box a long   
   time ago.   
      
   It was on a SyQuest disk where I copied the files in the486's C:\DOS   
   directory that had MS-DOS v5.0 and IBM PC-DOS v7.0 files in it.   
      
   It was a PC-DOS v7.0 file called VIEW.EXE .   
      
   So it "wasn't out of the 'XP' box".
