The little grey cells holding this info are rather dusty, but they're telling me that back when I used VMS (early '80s) CONVERT/FDL was the appropriate tool to deal with issues like this. It took some noodling around the HELP pages and some experiments, but I eventually got the file I was dealing with converted. You might want to throw ANALYZE/FDL at the file first to see how it really is set up. /~\ The ASCII Mouse \ / Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML mo...@rodents-montreal.org / \ Email! 7D C8 61 52 5D E7 2D 39 4E F1 31 3E E8 B3 27 4B
