Hi Laura,

Thanks for responding. I remember using DOS batch files to create simple 
menus in the days before Windows. Do you remember the name of that 
program that waited for a user to press a key? I'm sure we used a little 
executable, something other than running the "PAUSE" command and looping 
to the beginning on keypress.

Cheers,

-Tony
