Maybe R:azzak can chime in and shed some light; if it was changed by design it would be nice to have a solution to the problem created, if it was changed by accident it would be good to have it back to the was we think it was. I would report it to RBTI but I am not sure if it is a bug or a feature... Javier,

I would assume the answer is "no", that a counter is being incremented by R:Base at CONNECT time and decrement when a correct DISCONNECT takes place. But I could be wrong, and R:Base could be consulting a counter maintained the operating system -- in that case the count would decrement when the machine was shut off. > Perhaps there is a way to delete only the files created by the user? A > Windows call would likely be needed for this??? That's interesting, although I don't know how to do it. But even there you could clobber a second session running on the same workstation, or a session running on another machine logged in to the same account, so it wouldn't be foolproof. Ideally, files in use by any existing session of R:Base would be non-deleteable. That's how I _think_ it used to be, although I'm not certain. -- Larry --- RBG7-L ================================================ TO POST A MESSAGE TO ALL MEMBERS: Send a plain text email to [email protected] (Don't use any of these words as your Subject: INTRO, SUBSCRIBE, UNSUBSCRIBE, SEARCH, REMOVE, SUSPEND, RESUME, DIGEST, RESEND, HELP) ================================================ TO SEE MESSAGE POSTING GUIDELINES: Send a plain text email to [email protected] In the message SUBJECT, put just one word: INTRO ================================================ TO UNSUBSCRIBE: Send a plain text email to [email protected] In the message SUBJECT, put just one word: UNSUBSCRIBE ================================================ TO SEARCH ARCHIVES: Send a plain text email to [email protected] In the message SUBJECT, put just one word: SEARCH-n (where n is the number of days).
