     The answers were:
     
     Here are the options (most desirable first):
     
     1. The easiest thing is probably
     to install and configure the layered product
     CLCMC311 (CAM Medium Changer Driver V3.1A). This gives
     you the `mcutil' program that does selective tape insertion from the
     jukebox.
     
     2. As far as actually selecting a slot other than the next in order,
     you may want to look into MRU (Media Robot Utility), but I'm not sure
     if it supports TLZ07s.
     
     
     Thanks to all,
     Bob
