Cheers, G. P.S.: help/mess badfilever yields also the following: Explanation: The file version number in a file specification is greater than 32767 or contains nonnumeric characters. Or, the file system may have attempted to create a file with a version higher than 32767 through defaulting rules.

OpenVMS docs - all PDFs in one place?

by sampsa＠mac.com

Argh - they haven't put the right metadata in the PDFs and the filenames are like the part numbers of the item in the DocSet. What a pain.

They should be available on the net as well, I think. Johnny .

Thanks - just pulled them down and about to load them onto the DX. I can highly recommend the device guys - it's expensive but absolutely brilliant for reading, just like a book.

The PDF:s for the V8.3 are there: http://h71000.www7.hp.com/doc/os83_index.html and for the V7.3 there: http://h71000.www7.hp.com/doc/os83_index.html Kari On 22.1.2010 18:44, Johnny Billquist wrote: No, I mean the CD.
