I have had no list mail since Charlotte's mail on this topic explaining to Arthur question about why my code should be trusted. It's been 8 hours since I've received any list mail. Using Drew's archive I found Marty's link: http://www.vbcode.com/asp/showsn.asp?theID=4718 which was easily adapted to my purposes. That code assumed but did not show a few command buttons and a textbox and a combo box and used conventional VB syntax (referring to the text property of a textbox and checking for "" rather than null, and using additem and a named listindex for the combo). I made minor changes adding my own API browse for files to adapt it to typical Access 97 code and it works perfectly on files that I tried it with. The code is very nice, stores away the file extension in a file header together with the number of file pieces and automatically names the file with a numeric incrementing extension. Reassembly merely requires one to pass the path and name of the first file piece. It's a bit slower than I expected but it appears to work well and I'll spend a bit of time this weekend mulling over what I was doing wrong.
