I just tried this suggestion, and I'm not sure that it's a good thing to do, it was taking a 'long' time (1 in 3-5 sec). I have ~1700 articles (expiry of 60 days) and I don't have that long to wait. It also seems to loose any marks that have been applied to the articles (expiry for example), and if you use expiry it will screw that up also because it will change the modification time on the file, which nnml uses for expiration. -- Shane Holder e-mail: holder@rsn.hp.com Hewlett Packard phone: (214)497-4182 3000 Waterview Never underestimate the bandwidth Richardson, TX 75083 of a truck moving at 70 MPH.
