On &.5 you need a patch MPELXG2 (current GR superseder MPEMXJ6 ) to get this enhancement. If you have Powerpatches C6503 or C6504 installed, then this patch should have been installed as well. > Perhaps it was the restore-from-disk option that came with 6.5? No, RESTORE from disk archives has always been part of FOS, since the introduction in 5.5 days. > But still it would be nice to know the real truth behind this: When came > this option as a patch - and when was it made part of the FOS? really FOS in 7.0.
