It will generate a CL program containing the commands to create the message file and add all of the messages to it. Before running the command, it's a good idea to go through the message file source and examine each "#" character, as this indicates a substitution value. CRTS36MSGF will religiously create parameters for each, and quite often the intent was to display the "#" character itself. The fix is to replace each "#" that is not a real substitution value with another character that does not appear in the source file (like @ or |), allow CRTS36MSGF to generate CL source, and then put the "#" characters back in before running the CL program. hth Pete -- - Pete Hall peteh@earth.inwave.com http://www.inwave.com/~peteh/ +--- | This is the Midrange System Mailing List! | To submit a new message, send your mail to "MIDRANGE-L@midrange.com". | To unsubscribe from this list send email to MAJORDOMO@midrange.com | and specify 'unsubscribe MIDRANGE-L' in the body of your message. | Questions should be directed to the list owner/operator: david@midrange.com +---
