Thanks Richard,


I've found it in your Quick ref guide and got the reference to the file that 
might be causing the problem.

It seems that there just is a drive that needs cleaning that is causing the 
problem during the export. Just cleaned the drives manually again and I'll see 
how the export runs during the weekend.

best regards,

Kurt
