lisa, you can't see that the file is named 'TRENDY.BAT' because of a setting in Windows Explorer. Select the VIEW \| OPTIONS menu, and make sure that you have unchecked the setting labelled "Hide MS-DOS extensions for known filetypes". This will cause the 'TRENDY' file to reveal itself as 'TRENDY.BAT'. To create the shortcut, open Windows Explorer and go to the directory c:\trendy. Click with the right mouse button on the 'TRENDY.BAT' file. This will bring up a menu. Select 'Copy' from the menu. Then, right click on your Desktop (or whereever you want the shortcut to be placed) and select 'Paste Shortcut'. This will create an icon that, when double-clicked, will run the 'TRENDY.BAT' file. Hope this helps, ~Mitch

craps and such is the topic... lisa, I MUST publicly THANK YOU for the lesson, but why in the heck did I have to answer all those questions?? sheeesh!!!! you could have just asked me MY number and called me. I hate to see how deep in the whole I am from this trip......you know all that money i spent without getting a receipt. Hey, I was up on the slots and cashed out about 2.7 times my money.....made one small mistake at the craps table...... they played different though..... they had no idea what a "vig" was ....but there was a sign that said $1 to bet on 6 & 8 or maybe that was to bet on any points......I dont remember, you know I went to the casino on Saturday night. We stayed till about 2:30am and that was before Monday, right? sheesh!!! one table was so fricking slow.....and I was a little tired and I was NOT in my wound up mood when we got there...... it was fun though.....the best bet of the night was the "field" bets.....they were winning a bunch.....and I won some on the pass line and some on the "points"..... never did figure out doing things the "hardway" or what a "yo" was .. oh, a die jumped up off the table and landed to the left of me ---- after my losing streak.....and I was not going to touch it...but no one else would either....I threw it in....and the roller crapped out on the next roll......go figure.... so, is there a casino half way between us??? oh, BTW, I do NOT live near a casino, do I??? cold handed, david
