>Is there any way of disabling DOS internal commands ? Alternatively >can DOS be persuaded to execute a program of the same name as a DOS >internal command without explicitly specifying a path ? ------------------------------- Search COMMAND.COM for the command "copy" and edit the name to something like "kopy". Rename "vcopy" to "copy". The details of editing COMMAND.COM are very fuzzy, so I can't help you more than that. Good luck! BTW, be sure to document the change so later people can be aware and/or be able to change it back. -ted- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ted@helios.ucsc.edu |"He has showed you, O man, what is good; and what does the W (408)459-2110 |Lord require of you but to do justice and to love kindness H (408)423-2444 |and to walk humbly with your God?"
