Tom,
I can't imagine what the problem could be, unless
you have not modified your TVL.BAT Item correctly.
It should look something like this:
|Item:TVL.BAT			Type:Text	Acc:Owner/Owner
|	Initial State:(none)			Backup:No
|	Text	     :TVL.BAT TZ-E 8 0

If you run it manually, be sure to enter these arguments.
To speed up the testing, insert "rem " in the "CALL TVLDL"
line (so as to avoid downloading again).
