Hi Jeff, Those *.chk files are usually files of all the material collected from erroneous FAT indicators. Unless you can actually recognize the data or need to sift through it for actual text, then delete them. I have my scandisk to automatically delete at the end of the run if it has any errors. The files usually comprise a mish-mash of data. There is probably no benefit in saving them unless, as I say, you need to sift through and find text you need. If there are any program files in binary code, they are lost. --------- Roger [EMAIL PROTECTED]
