Then have the tics been deleted at my system when my tic processor then
tried to create the new fileecho and it made it bad so I later had to
manually change the setup and the files only were in my inbound and no tics
for them.
I hatched the files but dosn't got the description for the files just to
make them got right to my ftp /new/flashmar directory with a files.bbs
file.

Ok.

 JK>Btw, the files here had a description:

 JK> EVERYD.ZIP   140204    1k    0 Everyday
 JK> ITD.ZIP      140204    1k    0 Into the darkness

Yes and now have I put the description in for them on one system and their
files.bbs file.

  Take care,
