I guess that could be because the file is 0 bytes.. Over here, my logs show the 
0 byte file goes out though.. Maybe in your case, when it goes out to Ross from 
here, Htick doesn't like it.. not sure.  I'll check with Ross though and see.

Thanks for the heads up.. it will be easy to stuff something in the file just 
to make it non-0 byte.

As far as the exact filename, I replaced a file with a name like .r00 and .r01 
with .txt since I was thinking who wants a lonely .r00 etc. file laying about.. 
that's silly I guess <g>

Take care,
Janis
