See what happens when the development people move to the other side of the
building?  We have a program that quickly runs down the file checking each
block for corruption.  It's essentially an optimized version of Stan's
algorithm for finding a messed up message file.

Gee, at one time I would have expected someone from Quest to *answer* a
question like this.

     Is there any way to detect file corruption - specifically ->
 
     BAD VARIABLE BLOCK STRUCTURE (FSERR 105)
 
     It appears that after system failures message files can be corrupted,
     and we'd like to know if they are after a system failure.
 
     Please respond to this via e-mail, as I don't belong to the list
     anymore.
