This thread is about files attached to transactions. Hence the reference 
to "attachments", and "root path for linked files", and the subject of 
"Linked location". I wrote:

But when you say, "Oh, how much easier to have just one file! Mine goes 
back 20+years. If I need yearly info, I merely generate a report." it 
sounds to me like you are talking about the book file. Neither R Losey 
nor I are talking about multiple book files in this thread.
