Eric: I know Waterloo script, but I have never seen SCRIPT/VS. If you send a few script files and the IBM output from the files, I'll run them through Waterloo SCRIPT and then use COMPARE2 on the output. Brute force, I love it. As regards page numbers and related formatting online, I am sending you the master help file for a lovely little program call TNET; if you examine the header records, you will note it automagically suppresses the page numbering and titles if run as a MEMO but puts them in if run to the offline printer or to device QMSLASER. I'd suggest formatting your documents similar to that, because I *hate* page numbers online. Drew p.s. You going to using SCRIPT or GML?
