Hi Richard, Thanks for the info.
The reason why is because I am reading a lot of files and was wondering if it would be faster to write a external to read them. I have no complaints and I think it reads them very fast already but I was doing what I could to learn if it could be speeded up. I am now thinking it is as fast as I can make it so your answer will save me a lot of wasted time. Thanks again!
