I notice that the OI help and manuals only list three possible values for Status() from OsRead, OsWrite, etc. Namely:

0= No error

2= Access Denied by Operating System

5= Undefined error (OSClose only).



Am I to assume that the all the other old Status() values are no longer valid and will not occur? 

Namely:

1= Bad file

3= Disk or directory full

4= File does not exist

6= Attempt to write to a read-only file

7= Invalid Write Posit

I also believe there was also an 8 but I don't remember what it was.



If true, why have these old flags been discarded?



Thanks,



Tom Savell

<QUOTE>Tom-



I'm pretty sure they still work and return. I'll test this week and post a definitive response.



Thanks-
