Paul, Thanks for the reply. I will try to open it up in an editor and see if I can append to it. I strongly think that is the application which is the limiting factor. However, is there a way to work it around? I do need to use gcc2.6.3 though.. Jake IT Dept <ismanager@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: Can you open it in and append to it once it gets to 2gb? Just a thought on how to test whether it's the file system or the app that is the problem.
