Read-only files

[Michael Reynolds]

Stephen,

It has been a while since I have used DOS, but you can use the "attrib"
command to change the file properties for entire directories of files.  Go
to the directory on your hard-drive where the files are stored (this cannot
be done on the CD) and type "attrib -r *.*" at the DOS prompt.  This will
remove the read only property from all of the files in this directory.

Good Luck,

Mike
