what build of 7.3?

some of the earlier ones had a problem spanning tapes

I'd STRONGLY suggest that you grab the free upgrade to v7.3 2575. As far as
I'm concerned all v7.2 builds and the early v7.3 builds were all BETA code and
still full of bugs.

BNT73I03 (English/Intel)
POST2575 (See the readme to determine if any apply)
SPANFIX
MEDIAFIX_234341 (You want to get to 2575 just for this one, believe me)

Thanks Ken,

I will have to look and will upgrade if necessary. This is frustrating as
it is not happening with all back ups.

The tape drive is new but could be involved.
