The incoming nodelist arrives in uncompressed, ASCII format and that is what 
I'm working with.

That is the way I am currently proceeding.  The old nodelists are kept only 
for a month and after that time period, they are systematically deleted when 
creating a new archive (so the archive only contains the last four 
delists).
I believe that I've accomplished everything that I set out to resolve and 
this issue is no longer a problem for me, but I appreciate your interest.
I've recently installed AllFix to deal with the processing of incoming files. 
 My biggest problem at this moment, seems to be making a determination where 
the incoming nodelist may be located AFTER AllFix has played with it.  I know 
I can find my solution(s) by reading the documentation, tweaking AllFix, and 
making the appropriate modifications to the batch file.  ;-))
              G'Day ... Gerald
