I am not a computer professional; I work at the US Food and Drug 
Administration, as an analytic chemist.  I did get the Vermont University 
MSDS' down here and the 140.9 tgz expands to a ~1 Gb set of HTML files. This 
looks like a fairly complete set of safety data sheets. The reason I mention 
this Harold (and others) is that most of the complete MSDS data bases are 
commercial products sold for yup scale prices. So this one:

http://hazard.com/msds/f.tgz 

appears to be the last that is freely  available. Sure you can pick them off 
one by one from Sigma or VWR scientific but who has time for that ?
 Anyway I am glad the script worked for you.


					Kind regards
