I copied a VAX Document text file to a tape to take home and convert to DECwrite by the following: $ init mua0: file $ mount /ov=id mua0: $ copy filename.SDML mua0:[000000] $ dism mua0: I was able to reverse the process at home. After converting 50 pages into a DECwrite .DOC file, I tried to copy it back out to take to bring the tape back to work. I keep getting the following error: %RMS-E-CRE, ACP file create failed -SYSTEM-F-Bad attribute, bad attribute control list. When I used backup to copy it to tape it worked fine. I was able to copy it out to tape and bring the information to work. Any insights to this ? thanks kam

If that's true, instead of copying the file, wrap it up in a backup save set. Backup knows how to mount tapes, so all you need to do is: Backup filename.SDML mua0::filename.SAVE/save to save it, and Backup mua0::filename.SAVE/save *.* to restore it. | |||||

How about writing the tapes label on the side of the tape, so you
won't forget it?
Or always set the label to LABEL, so you remember?
