Will look into it though. It uses the short name (data        TM> file name) to find each base. If it used the longer name, it would be        TM> hit or miss if even a character was changed.        TM>               I didn't think so but had to ask.        Since the data file name is limited to 8 chars and I have many with similar       names that DB starts changing the names to numbers. Now in the qwk pkt you       can't tell what the base name is, as its a number.       I don't have a work around yet.              Thanks.              I've upgraded RG to 1.30 and going to the next one!              ...
