Hello Robin,

I knew that!  My brain thought 528 but my fingers typed 512.  Either I have a 
minor congestion 
in my elbow and signals got compressed or my brain works too fast for my 
primitive nervous 
system.  Perhaps that's why I sned (sic) things or type data for date.  Thanks 
for keeping me 
honest!

I seem to recall someone mentioning that the structure of a savefile had been 
discussed on 
comp.sys.ibm.as400.misc but although I found some hits at dejanews I didn't 
find anything 
useful.

Regards,
Simon Coulter.
