| subject: | Re: Doc`s Place & QWK pac |
-=> Quoting George Lagergren to Nancy Backus on 03-07-07 22:17 <=- GL> Nancy, please tell me about creating a BW index on Doc's Place or in GL> the BW program itself. Thanks. Well, it's not exactly a BW index, but the index (.idx) files that a QWK packet needs. :) I just checked out the configurations both places. At Doc's there isn't a specific command to build index files, but I know that his qwk door does do something about it. What I did see, was one thing that is connected with it, the CONTROL.DAT file in the packet. [M]essages, [Y]our Settings, [O]ffline mail settings, [13] Small CONTROL.DAT, should be set to NO. That way it doesn't take shortcuts that might make problems. In your BW reader Configuration area, go to the Global and choose Mail Packet Options. One of those is Build QWK Index Files. The choice is between Always and Detect. "Always" will build any necessary index files, whether or not they were already there. "Detect" will check to see if index files exist, and if so, assume that they were built correctly, whether or not they actually were. Mine is set to "Detect", and I have never had any problems with Doc's. Hope this helps. :) ttyl neb ...
