    Hi Robert,

    I fatfingered a hatch today in Win_util, sorry about that. ar74564W.zip
    was sent out twice.. hope it doesn't mess up anyone getting the file :(

    didn't notice until I had a few tic files and only one fdn file in my inbound dir. for tossing, last night and ask you by im for the file

    Yes, glad you noticed the tic... I had a feeling it would cause some problems..

    Well, when the next version comes out, I'll be more careful. :)

    Take care,
    Janis

    i've also noticed times where it appears that a tic is sent out with no file accompanying it to delete/remove a file from an area... allfix doesn't know how

    to handle them and i have to create a zero-byte file for it to process them properly... can you and anyone else hatching file removal tics also ensure that

    a zero byte file of the desired name accompanies the tic? preferably one of the

    same name.ext as the file being removed...

    Hi Mark,

    i've also noticed times where it appears that a tic is sent out with no file
    accompanying it to delete/remove a file from an area... allfix doesn't know ho
    to handle them and i have to create a zero-byte file for it to process them
    properly... can you and anyone else hatching file removal tics also ensure tha >a zero byte file of the desired name accompanies the tic? preferably one of th
    same name.ext as the file being removed...

    I guess that could be because the file is 0 bytes.. Over here, my logs show the

    0 byte file goes out though.. Maybe in your case, when it goes out to Ross from

    here, Htick doesn't like it.. not sure. I'll check with Ross though and see.

    Thanks for the heads up.. it will be easy to stuff something in the file just to make it non-0 byte.

    As far as the exact filename, I replaced a file with a name like .r00 and .r01 with .txt since I was thinking who wants a lonely .r00 etc. file laying about..

    that's silly I guess <g>

    Take care,
    Janis
