    Nancy,

    I KNOW that I have lots more messages to answer... one at a time... NB>eventually maybe they'll all get answered... :)

    QWK Packet work is never done. :P If I was going to get more than one
    packet, I had to rename the suffix, or it'd overwrite the incoming
    packets. I usually could send everything in one reply, though...although
    my BBS is the only one I do mail from anymore.

    Daryl

    I've got a nifty utility on my computer that lets me rename my QWK
    packets right away... it changes the name on the packet to include the
    date, and a letter for multiple packets on the same date... So docs.qwk
    would become doc0831a.qwk for the first packet of the day... then if
    they stack up for a few days, they don't overwrite... BW packets, I use
    a numeric suffix... :)
