The count is correct - but the program never actually finishes the full cycle - I placed this before the TR to monitor the processes
WAIT WINDOW (laDir(lnX))
I found that I was getting 5 different stops on each fxp file - so that if the lnfiles count is multiplied by 5 it makes it through.
on each stop the ladir - lnx shows the name, then 4 stops follow which show date, time and 2 other properties I don't recognize. So each erasure actually takes up 5 separate counts. Anyway to fix this?
