Need DOS Manuals

Does anyone have or know where to get new or old DOS manuals? The thicker the better. Version doesn't really matter. Thanks.

Lawton: DOS manuals aren't easy to find now. You may find electronic versions somewhere and if you do send me a link will you please.
Just a thought perhaps there's a better way to stop your table from wobbling?

Fred Gee has already pointed Lawton Connelly to two very good Command Referances at my http://www.powerload.fsnet.co.uk Resource Site. I would say that they were of more use than the MS-DOS Users Guides supplied by Microsoft! (The Command Referances are by Microsoft, by the way) But as with 99% of people who use this site, he has not returned to say if any of the above information is any good to him! I, like many other users of this site do not seek reward for information given, but a confermation that infomation was of use would be nice.
