Allow a couple hours before a repost, particularly on Thursdays on occasion.

If I read the Run statement info correctly, you are failing to specify the
full path, and if not the full path then the vRefNum also.

Try:

RUN a$, gFldrVRef

Or, perhaps

a$ = "Trohen Utilities:PlugIns: System Info"

RUN  a$, system(_aplVol)

?

And beware Trohen Horses.
