Dave, You didn't specify the operating system. I know Windows won't let you resize the file if it is open. Our application opens the files during login. To overcome this, I log into the UV account and create an F-pointer to the file, then resize through the F-pointer. Alternatively, rename your login paragraph so files aren't opened. Tom

RESIZE complains that it hasn't got exclusive access, even though LIST.READU EVERY shows no locks at all, fuser -u shows no one using the .30 files, and UniVerse (10.0.16) having been stopped and started. We can resize other dynamic files with no problems. There's plenty of room for the temporary files. How can we persuade RESIZE that these files aren't open ?
