OK... Now it is getting interesting...

I ran the Legecy pdf/ps => file upgrade tool (worked perfectly).

Then I ran "cleanup entries" with all sellected since I have about a 
thousand or so to spin through...

It works fine until the first time it encounters a problem and gives 
the error:

java.lang.NullPointerException
         at 
net.sf.jabref.gui.CleanUpAction.doRenamePDFs(CleanUpAction.java:410)
         at net.sf.jabref.gui.CleanUpAction.run(CleanUpAction.java:216)

         at spin.off.SpinOffEvaluator$1.run(SpinOffEvaluator.java:114)
         at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:679)


then it does not process any more entries.  I can go in and process the 
entries by hand, but with 500 in that one file, and no shortcut-key-fu 
to down-arrow and thwack, it is going to be a LONG night for the cleanup 
crew...

One thing that also might be helpful is that I learned that I have not 
migrated all my old archives to the current location and some of the pdf 
files I reference are missing.  So that might be the initial problem, 
but there should be a trap/catch/whatver-they-call-it-in-java so that 
one error does not necessarily abort all other processing.

hope this helps,
