I can understand that a qxl.win container file could get fragmented during creation. But do you mean that the container file can get fragmenbted on the Windoze side by file operations on the QL side too? On the QXL the container files were attributed as system files and, if I understand correctly, were therefore left alone by the defragger. Presumably they didnt fragment Windoze side either as according to the pretty graphs in Defrag, they remain a solid block and in place. <> Per _______________________________________________ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm
