Hi, can someone help me? I have 2 D3 windows servers with the same version. I used to have a super q-pointer on the second server pointing to an account on the first server. The q-pointer was deleted when i freed up vme space. I can't remember the format needed for the super q-pointer. I also can't find the document that i previously read to setup this. Thanks!

Good morning James!
From the d3 manual:
Super Q-pointer
Super Q-pointers are extended Q-pointers used to access non-D3 and/or nonlocal files.
A Super Q-pointer is a Q-pointer to a file that is not in the local D3 file system. The first attribute is a Q, the second attribute is blank, and the third attribute contains a host name (from the hosts file), followed by a colon, followed by the file name on the remote file system.
The first attribute can also be QS in which case the file-save process saves the entire remote file as if it existed on the local machine provided the save is used with the e option. This data can then be restored into that same remote file or into some other file.

I seem to remember it was somewhat starting with this [//servername]

The following TCL command from a client's system 'looking at' another d3/win system should give you the clues you need:
COUNT fsi:[//192.168.60.121]dm,fhb,p
Thus you could build a super-q-pointer to simplify the syntax:
SOMESUPERQPOINTER
001 Q
002
003 fsi:[//resolvable_d3_server_name]d3accountname,d3filename,
For example, where 'yourotherd3server' resolves to an IP address via your hosts file [or just use the IP address] where a d3 account called 'myd3account' exists containing a file called 'myd3file':
remotemyd3file
001 Q
002
003 fsi:[//yourotherd3server]myd3account,myd3file,
Note the placement of commas, they are important.
