It's a powerful program with a lot of options (allowing "ANDing," "ORing," etc., of search terms), so carefully reading the help screens (or just searching for a single term) is important. You also can TYPE the lists (all beginning with "BBS" as the first three letters of file names), though TYPEing is restricted to only a few screens of a file (enough to decide whether you want to transfer the file to use on your system and free up the BBS for others). The BBS files are in "GENTEXT" area after entering the operating system. Command to get there is GO GENTEXT. One file, on law BBSes, is in a different area. Command is GO A2: (I don't recall exact area name, but this alternative works fine.) Good luck. The Advocate/NOWAR, 312.939.4411, 24 hrs., 8/n/1, central Chicago. Msg 42104 is 10 line(s) on 07/16/89 from JERRY OLSEN to BILL WODARCZYK re: R/MODEM PROBLEM Eric's approach is a sound one.I might add that from what you say a potential source of the problem if you're connecting OK once at 1200 but then experience difficulty and this pattern is consistent is that your modem program may be getting reinitialized (or sent commands it doesn't recognize or can't assimilate fast enough) after the first call. You might check the command strings sent before and after each call, and any string which might be sent at the very beginning of a session. If you suspect such a problem, look at what's sent at the beginning of the session (when calling at 1200 works OK), and try using that as a lead-in to every call. Good luck.

Right now it is even worse - modemming is "buggy" and crashes the system. Seems to be more true since switching to a PC 8080 emulator. Even >I< don't modem things in any more. Dunno if I'll ever find the bug or not. Msg 42109 is 05 line(s) on 07/16/89 from WARD CHRISTENSEN to DONNIE STUHLMAN re: R/WARNING ABOUT COMPUTER STORE There is a "cont" command. After entering a msg, you can save it, then type "CONT" from the main CBBS command line. To me a "more logical" way to continue a msg would be to send it to ALL as the first msg was, not to yourself. Sending one on Compuserve IS more appropriate since it would SAY there is a reply. CBBS is not that smart. ;-) Msg 42110 is 10 line(s) on 07/17/89 from JOHN O'HARA to ALL re: NEW ONLINE SYSTEM FOR JOBS The Electronic Marketplace would like to extend an invitation to all members of this BBS to log in FREE of charge to our system.
