Mark,

I've answered most of my questions by just playing around with the programs
in ms-dos mode...

However, I was wondering if you might have some insight into how I might get
the local tv channels into the listings?

Using "TZ-C" for Central time zone, doesn't give you any channels..  I've
gotten into EXCITE and customized "my" page,
and can get the local channels there, just don't know how to get it
otherwise.......

Thanks for your work on putting all of this together!

I'll keep "tinkering"...  (that's how I figured out to use +61 instead of +1
if you download C-Band listings, which are eastern time zone)
