With all the info Paul M has supplied in SORTPKT, I reckon I could

*write* a Pktjoin in a day or two. Dunno if it would improve the

overall speed, though, I'd be handling the files three times

instead of twice.



Anyway, this file handle limit is something I'd like to check out.



What is PKTJOIN, btw? Will it run in 300k?



Cheers
