Rick,
My original question back in 2001 was responded to by Ed Rauh. I think he provided me a slightly modified version of SCCTEXT.PRG. I can send it to you if you like. I compared my BAK file and my PRG file and there are definitely differences. I'm not sure what the original version looks like.
I double-checked the process by putting just an SCA file in an empty folder and ran the command below and the files were created.
Let me know if you want the file.
