Time is the last backUpTime Size is the same when saving the first time without changes is different (f.i. some bites smaller in the ~-file when adding a line in a fld) ehwn saving with changes That seems to me correct!?!?! > > > in the networkFolder the backupFile KM.mc~ appears and doesn�t go away... > > the next saving doesn�t work -> "Can�t open stack backup file" > > That's what it should do if there really is a ~ backup file (to > prevent you from ruining it if the main KM file was a "short save" in > which case it may still open but won't have all your data in it). > > > I don�t recognize any errors in my network; all filetransfers, copy and > > backups work > > This process is very simple and only involves the system calls > unlink() and rename(), so I'd still say that a network permission > error is the most likely cause of the problem.

I found out something other: opening by doubleclick the saving seems to work for the first time but the ~ backup file doesn�t disappear! and further trials to save don�t work. But when I now open the stack from MC-home and leave the visible ~ backup file in the networkFolder it doesn�t matter. MC saves without error and then the ~ backup file disappears!!! ??????????? ?????? ;-((( > Regards, > Scott > > > ??? > > > > Regards, > > Ernst > > > > ******************************************************** > Scott Raney [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.metacard.com > MetaCard: You know, there's an easier way to do that...
