Thanks. That's a very illustrative example. Re-reading the document about using caches now makes more sense. Perhaps it would be good to say that analog writes a complete, new cache file every time, so one does not need to keep old caches, and say that the new cache file is cummulative.
In any case, thanks for the quick answer! Otis > Yes, you're using caching wrongly.
