>TYPE: HELP DBLSPACE

The best undo for dblspace is to backup everything to removeable media and startover on the hard drive (fdisk).

If you aren't able to follow that route then you may be able to systematically shrink the compressed drive and increase the size of the uncompressed drive.
	That is an allowable choice in the dblspace program.

The last option would be to upgrade to MS-DOS 6.22 which will upgrade dblspace   to drvspace and thus the choice to undrvspace (undblspace) is available.

Hope to help.
