   Thanks for the quick reply.   
   I guess I should have been more specific.  I remember doing this before, but   
   haven't written in Pascal for years.   
      
   You are correct - it was a call that was made in the program to an external   
   function -possibly within the DOS unit?.   
   I remember using that so that I did not have to do any type of a 'cleanup'   
   after running the compiled program.  It was all contained within the   
   executable.
