I wouldn't use D_VOC for the dictionary because if someone (usually the confident programmer) issues a DELETE.FILE command they would delete the D_VOC (bad bad bad).
ie DELETE.FILE TEXTFILES Just my 2cents Thanks, -- Donald Verhagen Application Development Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tandem Staffing Solutions, Inc. 1690 S Congress Avenue, Suite 210 Delray Beach, FL 33445 USA Voice Phone: 561.454.3592 Fax Phone: 561.454.3640 >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 9:51:02 AM 03/23/2005 >>> You can do the same thing in UniData; however you should put DIR in line 1 instead of F and use CREATE.FILE DICT TEXTFILES 1 to create the dict item. I also tend to put D_VOC in line 3 instead of doing the CREATE.FILE. You can also use things like @UDTHOME and @UDTBIN in the path. I do this to create a pointer to the bin directory so that I can look at the log files. I've put a program on the PickWiki that can be used to grab the O/S info for items in DIR files. There are also some dictionary items so you can list or select the files. http://www.pickwiki.com/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?GetOsInfo Colin Alfke Calgary, AB >-----Original Message----- >>From: Nick Cipollina >>One possible solution is this, say you have a folder that is located >>at C:\TextFiles.
