Easy enough to do in REXX >It's on my old desktop, so if it sounds like what you want I'll fire up the old computer and see if it's still there. Unfortunetly no, need it in C so will go looking again and further my education in a couple of days again, which I hate saying because what normally happens is, a couple of years later.... :-)) To busy doing things for everyone else, my stuff always seems to come last, some with a lot of people.

Could ask whatshis name (have to check back through my emails as I can never remember it) but I know the script he wrote for hobbes is a real hack job, and it does it on the fly, I want to keep Filepage static but the code should still have the points I need, once I figure out what it is I'm looking for. Unfortunetly he doesnt want to let anyone else see the code as he ment to um, clean it up, argh, I believe quite a large number of years ago. Hmm, that sounds familiar.... I'll start looking at other code on the net and see what I can dig up, must be something out there that will point me in the right direction.
