We have purchased Netbase (demo period) from Quest Software.  Netbase
creates a MSG file for changes to one of our datasets.  We have another
program that is supposed to read the MSG file and pass the information
to an Oracle database on the HP9000. I understand that both programs
should read and write to the MSG file (until physically terminated).
Netbase does this OK, but the script reading the MSG file reads through
the file one time and then pauses.  This is OK.  However, the next time
that Netbase writes to the MSG file, the script terminates without doing
another read.

Any help is appreciated.  Our demo period is about to expired and I do
not have this working correctly.  A listf ,5 of the file is enclosed.
