   It was more of Me being Paranoid when I see some change in settings which   
   I don't remember making.   
      
    PQ> Nice one, Ed!   
      
   No Credit due to Me, Paul.   
   It is a contant battle with the PC Compatiable computer(s) here.   
   The Commodore 64 PC's Floppy Drive took me a long time to learn how IT   
   wanted Me to talk with/to IT.   
      
   When I first got the C= system I tried over and over to format a FD using   
   the NEW Command, but didn't realize the Open Command on the first page of   
   the manual had to be used along with the other Commands to make the C= FDD   
   do what I asked it to do.   
      
   It is still a on going battle with the PC's I use.   
      
    PQ> ... A confident manner is important; Computers can sense this.   
      
   My computers try to destroy any confidence I think I have.......   
      
   Thanks for the Reply post.
