Hello Denis,

Spooling wasn't an area I had much to do with (I have seen some of the code) 
but I don't believe the writers 
are MRT programs.  It seems too sloppy given the structure of the 400.

I have seen the comments about pool size and tend to agree with them 
particulary since AFP is being used.  I 
assume this particular file was an AFP file?

Regards,
Simon Coulter.
