     When asked for further details, he also said that the program was using C128 mode, 40-columns, and that he had archived the program.  I will ask him for a copy of it and hopefully make it available to all.

I'm always amazed to hear about Commodore computers that are still being used for practical purposes.  It's truly a computer that has withstood the tests of time in many respects.  :)
