This was the perfect solution ...... the output file was being closed
on
reaching its limit, and then reset and re-opened leaving me with
only
the tail end of what I expected.

It would be nice if there were more intelligent clues printed in 
the
STDLIST.  Does anyone else see this as a bug (or at the very
least,
an unfriendly feature)?  QUIZ should abort on reaching an output
file
limit.  Its not much use getting an output file that doesn't contain
what
your program asks for.

Many thanks to all who replied to my message.
