1. The BATSE database is behind schedule because of the problems with the
   tape recorder on GRO.  As of 3/23/92 the latest data we have is from 3/9/92.
   Personnel at Huntsville are writing code to correct the data and hope
   to have new data available soon.


2. For those users who copy files from ISIS without logging onto ISIS (and 
   therefore need to know locations of files):

   A new disk was installed on ISIS for storing the BATSE data.  In order to 
   keep the large quantities of data online in an organized fashion, we 
   have separated the different types of files into different subdirectories. 
   The logical name BATSE$DATA points to a search list of the subdirectories 
   so you don't have to know the names of the subdirectories, but instead of
   specifying ISIS::BATDISK:[BATSE] as before, you must now specify 
   ISIS::BATSE$DATA.
   For example, the general help file previously was specified by
            ISIS::BATDISK:[BATSE]HELP_GENERAL.TXT
   and is now specified by
            ISIS::BATSE$DATA:HELP_GENERAL.TXT
