Hello Martin,

Yes..  I was thinking "the directory where the nodelists are dropped into".

When I drop in the archived nodelists into the DistribNL, WinPoint magically
unpacks them.  The unpacked version continues to reside there.  I had previous
older "versions" of nodelists (and not necessarily in sequence) in there as
well. But when I deleted the old ones, and recompiled the nodelist, the 1:1/1
entry disappeared.

WinPoint may be the better GUI-based point program compared to Apoint, but I'd
rather prefer to take the smoother ride that OpenXP offers.
