Where are your file ?
1) A DOS partition with VP/IX access....
This should work and there must be a bug.
2) A UNIX file system with DOS files on it....
Hmm... I wonder if this would EVER work .. there is no archive bit
to SET on a UNIX file system (unless they arent telling me something
here at the labs).
3) The "Emulated DOS HD" in a file thing...
It should work there as well.
