Hi, Paul.

PE> FM> OLX created 2 files in the REP which then got unpacked by QWK2PKT into
PE> FM> the outbound directory and sent to you. One was the file, the other
PE> FM> some sort of info about it. Don't know if that's what your software
PE> FM> expects at your end. Let me know if it worked.

PE>Well I got both files in my inbound directory, but that is not
PE>a file attach, that's just sending me two files.  I told you
PE>what needs to be in the PKT to distinguish a file attach.

Sure, presumably what OLX generates is the appropriate thing for QWK
doors, and somehow the door recognises that info file and uses what's in
it to stick the appropriate thing in what will end up as a PKT.  Just
thought I'd see what happened. Presumably a future release of QWK2PKT
could do this.

PE>BTW, there's no point in sending me a file attach, as I don't
PE>use the proper method to get files.  You need to find out if
PE>you can send file attaches to other users.  But before doing
PE>that, I need to see if David Begley can send them to you, to
PE>make sure I've got my end set up right.  BFN.  Paul.

OK, I saw that you'd asked Dave to do that, I'll let you know when/if I
get it.

Regards, FIM.
