Well, now that you jab my memory a bit more, it was either here or ? that I
recall seeing a post that if you decide to delete .tmp's and defrag without
having shut down all applications, that you should consider leaving .tmp
files dated today in place, as they may be in use.  I generally shut down
pretty completely before the maint, but just in case someone goes 24/7 with
scheduled deletions & defrag....Oh, No Mr Bill! ;-)

Aha - the plot thickens. Perhaps we should suggest the TS delete
presumably temporary files when it is done - that would seem to be good
programming practice, *especially* when it causes problems for TS.

Thanks much for your note - it helps us all. Too bad these kinds of
things are not part of the instructions for TS...

Any other hidden 'land mine' details that would prevent TS stability?
