You could use sessions, base the file names on the session numbers, and keep a list of open session (i.e. not completed) and the time they were last accessed, you could have a job run every half hour to remove session files not used for a certain time period.
Or there's probably a better way, but that's one suggestion. HTH Nigel >>> "Brian Bratcher" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 07/30/02 08:57pm >>> Ok, I have created a package that takes orders and creates temporary files. Upon completing the order, the temp files are deleted. If the user does not complete the order and leaves the web site, the files remain as clutter. How can I tell if a user has left the site and act upon it? If a user only gets half way through the order process and decides he/she is ready to go-to another site; How can I tell the system to erase their left-over files?
