As a sidenote, all actions that you take using FV.SEQ must be sequential actions such as WRITESEQ, WEOFSEQ, CLOSESEQ. I'm not sure what would happen if you used a normal WRITE or CLOSE statement on that filepointer, I hope and suspect the program would bomb. -- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.oliver.com/mailman/listinfo/u2-users
