A while back I developed a little program that builds a script for DEBUG that allows the use of a multi line logon prompt. It is not possible to put any special characters into SYSGEN to create a multi line prompt. From a legal/security standpoint it is CRITICAL to be able to post a private system/usage monitored message PRIOR allowing a sign on attempt. The files required can be found at WWW.BEECHGLEN.COM in the downloads section. Mike Hornsby [log in to unmask]
