I have gotten such great help from the readers of this forum lately, I thought
I would try for another.  I use a commercial program that produces an ASCII dat
a file after running.  I would like to automatically save this file under a sam
ple name and start the program again, from which another file OVERWRITES the fi
rst.  By saving under the sample name, the overwriting of the first file does n
o harm.  Then, the second file would be saved as, perhaps as FILE2.  So at the
end of the analyses, I would have a series of files, from FILE1, FILE2, FILE3..
..., each produced from a recursive run of the data collection program.  Any he
lp would be greatly appreciated.  (Either GWBasic or Quickbasic). THANKS! Larry
