    From Vincent Coen@2:250/1 to All on Sat May 17 12:51:05 2025
    Hello all mbse programmers!

    I have created a new File group with three file entries.

    The problem is I can NOT do a G add (new group) for All downlinks making the new FDN and is 3 areas available to All without doing so for each downlink and I have a lot of them.

    Please add the Group option to 7, as "G" for a group change so that I can add the new file FDN for every one to have access to.
    It would then be up to a node to set themselves up for each new file area linked to it.

    I can not see any other way of doing this other than to make a change to every downlink one at a time and I have well over 40 of them.

    I've had to do that many times also. I'll poke at Andrew.

    I understand.

    Andrew has seen your request though. I don't know how hard it'd be to add
    that feature in. I don't think it'd be too difficult. I know some C but not enough to do somethinbg like that.
