Hi! Wilfred,

It was all just a guess.  The only thing FMail I have here is the latest
archive.  I was reading the dox with Total Commander.  :)

My Hudson area is re-created on a RAMdrive by some .Bat file and saved to
disk at some interval by some other .Bat file.  I dreamed up this idea some
time last century.  I have no idea how it really works.

That's heartening.  It's an old, old notion that popped into my brainbox
and refused to go away.

Ah, that is nice.  Thank you.  I'll have to start taking text captures of
all these how-to doo-dads from you.[giggle]

Cheers,
Paul.
