RE: GL Purge

["Ellsworth, Bob" <Bob.Ellsworth@xxxxxxxxxx>]

In the "JBA Customer Suppot Year-end Preparations and Procedures" for
v3.5.1, there's a section entited "Financial Archiving".  The section
consists of a single 
sentence in bold type:
   We strongly suggest that you not run any financial archiving routines.

This was enough to convince us.  
Unfortunately, too late to help you out.  But perhaps this series of email
messages might save others in the pre-3.5.2 community who may not have known
about it.
