Is this the old chestnut about a rogue <GROUP>.tmp file in ...\nsr\tmp? If
so, this is a very well known bug that has been in savepnpc ever since 5.1
when it was written. It was originally LGTpa06002, but has also been logged
since under other numbers. You will find lots about this bug in the
archives of this list.

If it is the tmp file bug then it is not fixed in 6.1.3, or any version
currently released. I think a proper fix is coming in a future version. The
6.1.3 and 6.1.2 fixed bugs list say it is fixed now, but this is a lie.
