And the winner is ... Martin Simmons!!! Absolutely brilliant. I have now recovered some files from beyond where it was sticking before, and hopefully now can recover everything I need where I still have the file volumes. Another useful snippet to add to my arsenal. Just one extra piece of info for anyone who comes across this email in the archives some time, bls with the "-v" flag lists the FileIndex value for each file it outputs, so you can easily find the numbers you need. As the Rugby League legend Brian Carney said in a TV interview a while ago "I'm as chuffed as a rabbit with two d**ks!", before being reminded by the interviewer that he was live on national TV!
