As far as you're concerned, it waits. The underlying OS may be doing some caching, but this should be invisible as far as you're concerned. Deletion and renaming are pretty fast - they just require updating of directory structures. Creation is quite quick, but the file is effectively zero sized at the moment of creation. Only by writing data to it does it become vast. Alan Bellingham -- ACCU Conference 2005 - 20-23 April, Randolph Hotel, Oxford, UK
