So, after that, WHAT DO YOU WANT TO DO?

Your original complaint was that the BACKUP
/LIST command failed. I assume that it
works now, or else you would have told us
what went wrong.

> btw my VMS Version 5 that's is Old Version?

That depends. Would you call 24-SEP-1992 old?
For a woman, it's not old enough. For a
computer operating system, it may be getting
a little stale.

> this is amazing !!!

That's not amazing. That program has always
worked. The amazing thing is that anyone is
trying to read 16-year-old 9-track BACKUP
tapes. (And perhaps that it took him three
days to figure out how.)

I suppose that it could be worse. It might
have said "/DENS=1600" (or less).

Re: /backup/list how to (error)

Joko,

As suggested by Steven, first use the built in HELP in VMS. It will be more in synch with the version of backup you have. What you learn on VAX/VMS 5.5-2 will be relatively unchanged as you move forward.

Steven,

You additions to the soup did add some nourishment, after all. I guess it just needed to cool off some before it was tasted. :-)
it depends
