RE:Help with qcmdexc

Thanks to all who replied. The problem is now fixed. You would think that
after doing this for almost 15 years, I would have noticed that the
FROMFILE keyword was missing. I guess that just goes to show that
sometimes you can't see the error for the code ;).
Of course, I still would have had the problem with the quotes.
Thanks again to one and all.
