I am posting this for a friend; please reply to me and I will give him the responses. ================= I have several disks that were backed up from MSDOS 3.2 and on trying to restore them from the backup's the restore command is not working. It is coming up with a message saying that "no files were found to restore". Any suggestions? ================= Mike Hoffos -- mhoffos@janus.mtroyal.ab.ca (Mount Royal College is a community college in Calgary, Alberta) Disclaimer: Mount Royal College doesn't speak for me, and I *certainly* don't speak for it.

I had this trouble recenbtly, and it was simply a matter of using the right wildcards in the right places. Something like: restore a:\ c:\*.* /s The *.* caused the error to go away...... Incompatible versions of RESTORE can cause the problem too. There is a good restore program in SIMTEL20, but I don't remember exactly where and I don't have the index here with me. -------------------------+------------------------------------------------- Bob Eager | University of Kent at Canterbury | +44 227 764000 ext 7589 -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
