Gulp!
I'd forgotten that programs are harder to recover. I remember using the LRESPR/SEXEC pairs to save such recovered files, with the file length and data length being set by trial and error. I haven't written to the WIN_ files since deleting the contents, so they should be recoverable. Dependent on what happens to my grovel for replacement discs, I may try it. Regarding the floppy recovery, I'll have to digest what you've said first! Stuart _______________________________________________ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm
