IIRC, LAT was licensed with VMS. Ah. So I just need to find the filename to start it then. ;) It's changed since V3x days. Look for LTLOAD.COM in SYS$MANAGER. The new names are LAT$STARTUP and LAT$SYSTARTUP but I think you'll find LTLOAD.COM is the place to begin. Hmmm. There is no LATCP.EXE, LAT$STARTUP.COM, or LTLOAD.COM it would appear. Was it an add-on kit for VMS 3.5 or did I miss something rather important? ;) Though I lived it, recalling this history is not one of my strong points. LAT showed up in VMS circa 1984/1985 time frame from my recollection. I think you will need a newer version of VMS if you want LAT. Look around for V4.7 (pre-SMP/V5.0) or later VMS. They should have LAT and DECnet IV. I'm trying to recall, but I might be wrong. But I thought I was atleast using LAT with VMS V3.7 at the time. (I don't think I ever used any VMS before that.) That should be somewhere around 1984. Johnny -- Johnny Billquist || "I'm on a bus || on a psychedelic trip email: bqt at softjar.se || Reading murder books pdp is alive! || tryin' to stay hip" - B.
