Didn't I answer this one awhile ago? In any case, what you want here is: DiskSalv DF1: DF0: FILE 4#? The "*" character means "#?" in some systems, but it's not standard AmigaDOS speak. I don't expect there should be any trouble with numeric filenames as long as the Lattice startup code isn't mucking with them before DiskSalv gets the string. >Cheers, Dave -- Dave Haynie Commodore-Amiga (Systems Engineering) "The Crew That Never Rests" {uunet|pyramid|rutgers}!cbmvax!daveh PLINK: hazy BIX: hazy Too much of everything is just enough
