All,

I was wondering if any of you that use GIS have run across the following
situation and if you'd be good enough to offer your opinions on
rectifying the problem.

Step 1 - File is received via AS2 and placed into a holding folder
Step 2 - GIS service is polling this folder for data
Step 3 - Multiple files are found and a business process translates each
of them and concatenates the result into a single flat file

This seems ridiculously easy and straight forward.  The problem is that
step 3 runs so fast that it appends files to the output flat file and
some files are overwritten...fully and/or partially.

I have tried various solutions.  The latest solution from Sterling tells
me to do the concatenation in a Windows batch program that is called
from GIS.  This may be the only solution but it bothers me that I have
to do it outside of a product that should easily handle such a task.

I'm eager to hear back from GIS programmers that may have experienced
the same sort of thing.

Thanks,
