She told me that they get to the R> prompt and type: RUN CHECKBK
She says she has no idea what the program does, they just "do it". The
guy who did their system is long gone and unavailable. They sent me their
programs, and this program is not a readable file. If you look at it, it
seems to indicate a file f:\rwc80\CHKTRX00.EXP . I asked her to look and
sure enough there is a file with that name. Sent it to me and guess what,
that one's not readable either.
It seems to me like RUN CHECKBK shouldn't do a darn thing. I have zipped
these 2 programs together in my dropbox. If anyone is bored, can you
figure out if these are executable programs?
Thanks a bunch!

Karen,
We do advise you perform additional internal reviews prior to posting
access to files on the public list.
With the .EXP file potentially being an ACH electronic financial
transaction file, you could have provided
a person's bank account number and routing number to 400+ R:BASE List
individuals from across the globe,
and perhaps opening yourself to damaging legal action.
