Hi jim mcnamara,

I can't see your suggestion, can you re-post it? Thanks! Smilie


Hi birei,

I want NOT to move the last 10 files, the reason is that there might be a possibility the a certain application is doing something (e.g open for writing) on the last file (I have just set 10 for margin).

Do you have any suggestion Sir?


Thanks!

BR,
Raymond
