No one wants to use 'dsmc q inclexcl'... The developers went to all that effort to provide a convenient way to verify client-server Include/Exclude specifications in a "compiled" manner, and all for naught. ;-0 Always do that instead of inspecting physicals, to see what the product believes the composite really is. Then you can pursue from that standpoint of validation. Richard Sims, BU
