Re: Tree Loader Utility

[Daniel Haag <haag@MT.NET>]

Hi Gayle,
Yes, memory problems.  Not just slow, but with a large tree (greater than
2-300 nodes) it would come to a complete stop.  I modified the code to allow
restarts and it worked ok.   hen it stops just save the tree, then do a
restart on the same file.  I'm going to send the sqa and documentation to you
privately.
