Thanx for any help!

Email welcome if you're in a hurry or something -- but post in tek-tips as well please, and I will post my reply here as well.
 
In AIX? you can't generate an event with file creation, but you can generate an event on parent directory writes.
I hope it works...
Unix was made by and for smart people.
