Hello Mike.

I'm glad it worked with DOOR.SYS.  That routine is internal to FKFOSSIL.

Fun fact: all of the Ice Technologies doors (IceEdit, IceUser, et al.) were 
written using FKFOSSIL.

What I need to do is get an actual GTUSER.BBS file from you and "plug it in" to 
my program to see what the code is spitting out.  I have two versions of this 
code: the one that is being used now was written by Mark Lewis and I have 
another written by John Guillory.  Now that I think about it, John's code 
worked better so I should start digging to find it.

I just have been crazy busy.  I was up until 4 AM fixing my dad's Windows 10 
install (it wouldn't update due to Infineon TPM drivers hiding out on the hard 
drive; Microsoft is clueless as usual to the problem so I figured it out on my 
own...then it took three hours to get the updates straightened out...at 1042 
this morning, it's STILL UPDATING...) via RDP and then woke up at 9 AM.  Now 
it's off to town to get weekly groceries and a few other errands then back home 
for a few more things.  I'm hoping I can slow down tonight and put a heater in 
the ham shack to sit at the BBS and program. :)

Later,
Sean
