This brings up a question I've had before.

Why is the 'V00' not made use of?

Why doesn't'G9999V00 roll over to G0001V01?
Rather than starting over at G0001V00...

Just a thought

All automatically created files have the v00 version number. The V01-V99 suffixes are reserved for use in creating replacement versions of a Gxxxx Generation when needed (via hard coding the full absolute file name in lieu of using the (x) Relative Generation Number form of the Dataset name).
