Marvin and Ed:

Though I really appreciate both of your replies, I am looking at them 
and seeing that Marvin is saying it needs to be "+x" and Ed is saying it 
doesn't. I ran a test and "-x" seems to work.

For questions on my syntax of "*.sh", I have believed since my earliest 
days that a shell file (be it ".sh", ".csh", ".tcsh", or ".bash") that 
it has to be "+x" as it is an executable. If I am incorrect, I would 
love to know, though it may take me a day or two to adjust to the news 
that the earth shifted polarity (smile)

Thanks,
Paul
