You may be able to find it on this BBS.... two years is pushing the archive
limit for my current message base. You may have to switch over to my read-only
archive section.... [Drats... Read-only archives aren't currently on-line.]
[I really should take this to the local message area.... But if it is still in
the current echo's archive, you can just bring up the message and quote it from
the BBS.]
Hmmm... A quick search of this area for DOS FCB didn't find it.... You may
have given me a reason to restore read access to the old BBS message archives.
Take care.....
