Thanks Roger,
However, I do not quite follow, and am not sure what I should do. I am
quite a novice, but I am trying hard to learn. There seem to be so many
references to attributes :-
Drive\Attributes
lnkfile\Attributes
Piffile\Attributes
dllfile\attributes
Sysfile\attributes
Vxdfile attributes etc.
Hidden attributes like R=1; H=2;S=4;HS=6;SHR=7 and so on.
then there is C:\Windows\Command\Attrib.exe 
I would be grateful for a more definite explanation, but please keep it
at layman's level.
Thanks again.
Clem
