Nico,
Thanks for the response.
I wondered about that. I'm really using the uptodate to perform an
outofdate function. I guess I got caught. Anyone working on an outofdate
task?
Steve

UpToDate only compares existing source-files to the target-file(s). If a
source-file is deleted it currently does not know that.
