Robert,

 How do I call up the help? If I type in the filename, I get a blip of the 
program(both of them).
 If I try using  ~~~.exe -? or ~~~.exe /? or ~~~.exe -help or

 Well, I think you get the idea.

Here's a few of the things I've tried...

My OS is..
Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]

I've got the SP2 and all the latest, greatest upgrades available from MS.

Plenty of hard drive space....

 I have no disk in the A: drive. I have no B: drive

Here's what I tried from the "command prompt"...


D:\My_Stuff\Coco\DSK stuff>retrieve.exe /?
Unable to create specified virtual disk.

D:\My_Stuff\Coco\DSKSTU~1>retrieve.exe -?
Unable to create specified virtual disk.

D:\My_Stuff\Coco\DSKSTU~1>retrieve.exe -help
Reading track 00, head 0, sector 01 -- read error!
Abort, Retry, Ignore, or Continuous? a

D:\My_Stuff\Coco\DSKSTU~1>retrieve.exe /help
Reading track 00, head 0, sector 01 -- read error!
Abort, Retry, Ignore, or Continuous? a

D:\My_Stuff\Coco\DSKSTU~1>retrieve.exe?
'retrieve.exe?' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.


Am I using the wrong command line script or the wrong OS?

 My coco.... I understand.

 My XP box..... I use.

George
