I think what he means is that if a recorder creates a file and sends it,
then corrects it and sends again, the recipient could open the first one and
think it is the most current version when it isn't. It wasn't identified as
an issue by Peyton but I could see how it could cause someone an issue. M
What "things" get asynchronous? If what you say is true, email would
regularly go out without complete attachments. I think you're way off
on this one.

First things first. What Dean suggested is correct. You first need to look
security wise. Its not a wise idea to leave things sitting there in the open
and waiting for something to happen. Anyway, thats your choice how you
decide to plan your application.

caching would be at the webserver level with respect to this. My guess is
the email gets sent prior to the new PDF being completed. Emails are queued
and file saves involve file system work-time, so things get a bit
asynchronous. Even with unique file naming schems, this can be a issue.

It's just that caching is the only explanation I can think of, and if that's the reason, then deleting the earlier version of the file would do no good if the cached version is what's being sent. On the other hand, I have not verified that indeed the second version is indeed being created, so more

Thanks, Howard. That's the best solution I know of so far. But I still worry that, supposing the user has just e-mailed a report that he realizes he needs to correct and send again, deletion of the earlier version of the report would not remove the cached version - assuming, as I still do, that cac
Why not go ahead and use the job number, but when you're about to write the
PDF to disk first check to see if there's already one with that name
