Warren, I've read through most of these suggestions, but I'm surprised that the obvious hasn't been suggested yet (that I've seen): skip everything...
put the length of url "file:myfile.txt" into tEnd open file "myfile.txt" for text update seek to tEnd in file "myfile.txt" >From here just back up a "reasonable" number of characters... say 200. Find the last CR character, nuke everything else and close the file. Didn't find one? Try backing up another 200, etc. It'll be a whole lot faster. Edge case to concern yourself with would be if your file happens to end with a CR and maybe you want to ignore those cases. But that should be easy enough to solve. HTH, Jeff M.
