I am new at this and need help. I am trying to store a file on LISTSERV
so that others may GET it. These are the steps I did:
1) changed LISTSERV FILELIST to include TEST FILELIST
2) created TEST FILEID on the A disk which has two lines
       1
       TEST TEMP TEST TEMP E
   (it took a while before I figured out it had to be caps....)
   What does the 1 represent? Files with one file have a 1
   and files with 14 files have a one......
3) created TEST FILELIST  on the A disk (putting in a /F/ before
   the line tho I don't know why)
4) put TEST TEMP on the E disk (our permanent extra storage disk)
5) used the REFRESH command on TEST and got back what looks like
   good messages, something about AFD/FUI and refreshing filelist
6) THEN I tried a GET TEST TEMP   and it tells me TEST TEMP is unknown
   (I did try a GET TEST TEMP TEST and I got the file ok, but I thought
   that the filelist name was unnecessary if there was only one file
   with that name.......)
What did I do wrong  or not do?
Thanks.
