Unfortunately, -stcmd- gives no error diagnostics (I don't know how to get 
these from StatTransfer). I can therefore only guess what is going wrong. 
You might like to check your copy of -stcmd.ado- (usually stored in the 
STBPLUS . It should have a line saying something like

shell "C:\Program Files\StatTransfer7\st" `0' ;

The expression in quotes should be the path of the program file -st- in 
your StatTransfer folder (which will usually be a sub-folder of "Program 
Files" under Windows 98). If it isn't, then you should change it.

I hope this helps.

Roger
