I get the same display on my VS4000-60 running OpenVMS VAX V6.1 and the AXP display is more informative. For example, on AXP, types A-F specify "VAX" (though type A can be used for either architecture). Can you tell from the VAX display what the difference is between types F and I? You can from the AXP display. -- Steve Lionel Mail: lionel@quark.enet.dec.com DEC Fortran Development WWW: http://www.digital.com/info/slionel.html Digital Equipment Corporation 110 Spit Brook Road, ZKO2-3/N30 Nashua, NH 03062-2698 "Free advice is worth every cent" For a summary of Digital's Internet services, send mail to info@digital.com
