Thank you Kan and David.
David, I'll look into the Checkit program and see what's what.

Kan, excellent group all around. Kudo's to you and your team!

Called "Check-It - FASTMOVE." It is a windows product similar 
to "LapLink" I paid $19.95 for it at COMP_USA in Anaheim, California 
about 6 months ago. It is a side by side allowing access over a 
small peer-to-peer network or through a parallel port cable through 
the printer ports. It has a switch to control the display to hide 
files and directories that are the same. (I can not remember if it 
ignores files that are duplicates except the time is exactly one hour 
different.) It has no scripting or command line capabilities.
