Thanks, Byron. I have some qualified success here. I copied the hello file with Fid from the Echo tutorial disc, and now, of course, I'm informed that the Games disk I copied it to is an Echo tutorial. LOL The computer only did what I told it to do, naturally. I don't have the foggiest about writing code in, but I guess I could have copied a more generic hello file to the disk. Anyway, I've learned how to get into that much trouble; maybe I can learn to write a line of code. Many eons ago, I learned some QBasic and some of the JAWS scripting language, as hodge-podgy as that is.

enough rambling. this is fun, despite myself. :-P Hahaha.

Thanks,
teresa
