Barry,

BM>Years ago (early 1990's) I had a communications programme I used to dial
BM>in to the BBS (before I took over).  Worked fine except when I used a
BM>specific function - which had worked fine originally.  Reloaded (from a
BM>floppy!) and all was good until that function was needed again.

  I used GT Power for my BBS and terminal program. One of my users
found an unusual setup at a local flea market. It had a monitor, mouse,
keyboard, and a 3.5" and a 5.25" floppy drive, but no hard drive.

  So, on the A: drive, I made a bootup desk for DOS 5.0 -- then on the
B: drive, the batchfile for the GTO (GT Terminal Only) program. With
just that, and an external modem, he dialed into my BBS.

BM>... No tree is too big for a short dog to lift his leg on.

  Just hope the dog doesn't get dyslexic when you're walking him, and he
has to pee. :P
