One client connecting once seemingly transferring 195 records with my fP
app. then exiting.

I store the data stream in a variable BB(2000,*) which I was not clearing
after each record received, I added BB="" approx. .5 hour ago.  It hasn't
exited yet but I don't know that 195 records have been transferred in that
time.
