   Read it, performed it, as a command on the command line & drop-down menu.   
   Exported the existing areas to research format & no luck.   
      
   PQ> What's -not- happening, Phil?   
      
   It no workie-workie. The fidonet.na file exists in the \FE directory & when I   
   atempt to import it regardless of method, it reports "0 descriptions    
   imported".   
   It fails to create the areas or import descriptions.   
       
   So before I trudge through the manual creation of 300 echo areas, I would like   
   to investigate to see if anyone else has the same problem & possible solution.
