I think you won. I think there must have been a previous zombie still running around town holding the handle to the file. When I close my session and started over from scratch that handle vanished from the list, and my process stopped complaining.

I finally got it to spit out why it kept failing in the middle of the night. This is Universe 10.2.3 on Windows 7 Professional (if that matters) LINE 121 Unable to unlink the operating system file "BILLS.123" I'm trying to delete this file on this line, so what sort of thing causes this particular error ? Could it be that the file is being held open by something? That I don't have permissions to delete ? That the directory is read-only in Windows? What is my checklist to run through, to figure out which issue is my issue? _______________________________________________ U2-Users mailing list U2-Users@listserver.u2ug.org http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users -- *hp* ______________________________________________ 2-Users mailing list 2-us...@listserver.u2ug.org ttp://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users _______________________________________________ U2-Users mailing list U2-Users@listserver.u2ug.org http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users
