[snip the massive sig] There are several DOS TSR's that provide read-only access to hpfs partitions that work under win95. The only name I can think of off hand is amos3. It should be at one of the os2 ftp archives (hobbes, cdrom.com, etc). Most of these that I've tried do find for simple reading of files and such, but for some reason exec'ing from an HPFS drive doesn't work. For example: I have NT installed using HPFS (so I can share files with OS/2) and installed MSVC++ 4.0 onto that drive. Win95 could read the files fine, but wouldn't execute anything. I had to create a mirror directory structure on the FAT drive and copy all the executables (.exe, .dll, .ocx, etc.). -jmr
