down a line at a time by using [Ctrl][Shift]+UpArrow, etc, etc, etc.

To further increase your speed with the file copy method use the Overwrite
option (O when writing the data back to the cleared desired file from the
temp file. This prevents the COPY command from seeing if the record exists
and offering up the message. Technically if any target file is cleared,
I agree. Be careful to not trip over a record written in later frames.
Although WRITE after DELETE prevents the problem.
I have an observed question. Is there any MV flavor that requires the null
expression for DICT with opening the DATA level of a file. I stopped using
that unnecessary code over
Sort of like deleting MV's backwards in an attribute to not miss any. Been
there as well.

Your understanding of the BASIC
UD supports
LOOP WHILE READNEXT ID DO
D3 Supports
LOOP READNEXT ID ELSE EXIT UNTIL 0 DO
I don't recall what UV supports but it does have a streamlined version
without needing the tired EOF=0 or DONE=0 scenarios.

Be careful of consecutive speed tests. With memory caching and virtual
memory, the second process benefits from the first process loading and/or
leaving data in memory.
That may invalidate your victory if the second test won.
My 1 cent.
P.S. The GOTO Holy war will never end until it's removed
decrease as I have a lot more windows open now.

would use Accuterm to load in those filenames and offer them to the user for
proper pc-filenaming to attach to the application.
I would appreciate any insight on this.
Thanks in advance.

that MVterm still
'owns' the PC file. Only by logging off and closing MVterm does the PC file
become available.
I RTFM and there is a ULOCK but it's unrelated. Any suggestions.
Thanks in advance.
