Bill thats what I thought too, but it doesn't appear to work that way.
And I have done fairly extensive testing (see my previous posts in this
thread). In fact I thought I had covered just about all of my bases
with the 768K RAM I have available to me to test. Although I haven't
tried Ed's suggestion of the banks being vertically aligned (never
occured to me).
Thanks for the input though... :-)
