<DIV>One thing you might want to check into is if you are using Outlook

all you<BR>do when you work with MS products and/or certain contacts in 
Outlook.&nbsp; It<BR>records which files you open and how long you worked on 
them, etc.&nbsp; The<BR>default is that it is turned on and will make a huge

How can I stop MSExcel &amp; MSWord making unecessary writes to the 
hard<BR>disc?<BR>&gt; If I attempt to close a *.csv file, without any changes, 
Office97<BR>&gt; applications insist on rewriting the files; System monitor goes 
crazy.<BR>&gt; Closing the same file in MSWordpad causes no such 
activity.<BR>&gt; <BR>&gt; I have reinstalled both Office97 and Win95 osr2 but 
this makes no<BR>&gt; difference.<BR>&gt; <BR>&gt; Does anyone have any idea

    <DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>Can anyone help? I have two PCs (Alpha &amp;

    suggestions to correct this perplexing problem will be welcome.</FONT></DIV>

I'm using SC4.0 to view intraday ASCII data. Last Monday the exchanges
were closed and I'm getting an empty space on the chart. How can I add
this holiday to get rid off this nuisance? Thank you for the help, Alex
