C:\sbbs\exec>baja slight

Change "expert" to "UM_expert".

i did change as you suggested... has to be in " " ?

No, do not include the quotes.

At the top of slight.src, add the line (if it's not already there):
!include sbbsdefs.inc

If that line is already there, then perhaps you have an old sbbsdefs.inc file.
