Depends on how it was done. Using the direct file load is probably what he did. You can tell VT to load a file from the PC straight into the memory file system. I don't know if it's a sanity check being tripped. Maybe just a functional issue with the format that VT tries to leverage but things don't line up. I think VT has a TPDD emulator now? That and TS-DOS would probably would let it load just fine. -- John.
