Roger,

Is it possible that when you moved the processing, the automatic table 
did not get renamed correctly.

On windows the automatic table is called:  AUTO.PRC

On Unix it is called: prc.automatic

You do not say how you moved stuff and if it was with fpTransfer, if it 
was a current version, but I have seen this happen.

Also on unix, all the menus are case-significant and on Windows they are 
not.  Make sure what is on the menu represents the true case of the 
process tables.

prc.automatic - always assumed lower case
prc.input	- always assumed lower case

I have seen versions of fpTransfer - cut off names (usually on the Unix 
to Windows move, but a new version of windows using an old version of 
xfer could do it.)
