THANKS DWIGHT!!!!
I had just this week started a test setup to do exactly what you have on the
spreadsheet.  You saved me tons of time!

        NOPE !  (well, sort of, maybe, depends on which one you want)
        If a file changes daily, you only keep "7" versions, so you will
have at
        most 7 copies...
        on day 30 you only have days 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, & 29 to restore
from...
        days 1-22 have expired due to "versions data exists" AND say the
person
        totally deleted the file on day 27, then on day 30 you only have the
copies
        from day 28 & 29 to restore from (on day 30).

        I've attached my "retention.xls" spread sheet... now I did my tests
long ago
        but things still function this way.

        Oh, I just noticed I don't have any reference to my management class
        settings ! ! !
        YIKES, that spread sheet was based on my old favorite
B7.3_R35.95_A35
        where VDE = 7, VDD = 3, RE = 35, RO = 95
