I have been trying to unravel the directory PD2:<CPM.KERMIT> for a friend who has an old Morrow Decisions CP/M machine. I plan to get him the HEX files and the DOCs. However, when I "un-arc" CP409HEX.ARK.1, I find that a number of the HEX files in that archive fail the parity check and that the "un-arc-ing" terminates prematurely because a "File has an invalid decode tree." Although there are 61 files in the archive, I get only 38 of them because of this premature termination. I believe that my "un-arc-ing' procedure is valid, because it unravels the DOC archive in the sme directory satisfactorily. Have any of you met this problem and solved it? If so, how? Thanks, _Brint
