RE: Deleting save files-a basic question -- MIDRANGE-L

Oops - a typo.  If you want to get rid of both the savefile AND the cover 
letter, type  DLTPTF  ptf# (eg. SF54321).

 No real reason to keep the PTF savefiles unless you feel you may need to remove
,
 and later re-install a PTF (and you could always download the savefile again if
 you wanted).
 I WOULD suggest keeping the savefile for the lates 5763XD1 (CA/400 for
 Win95/NT)
 Service Pack - just because it's a big monster and takes a long time to
 download.

 If you want to keep the cover letter in QAPZCOVER file in QGPL just DLTF the
 PTF savefile (eg. QSF54321).

 If you want to get rid of both do DLTPTF PTF # (eg. SF54321).

 I copy my cover letters from QAPZCOVER in QGPL to a file I created called
 PTFCOVER.  I found that if you leave severl hundred PTF cover letter members in
 QAPZCOVER it increases the time needed to do DSPPTF.

 Hi all:

 Is there any reason why I should keep save files?  I have downloaded quite a
 few
 in between Cum tapes.  Do I really need them taking up space or can I just get
 rid of them?  If so, how do I delete them?  Any feedback would be appreciated.

 Thanks
