I was thinking more of David's original comment about defining the
queues in case of the risk of queue corruption. My approach is a
different way of tackling the same concern which doesn't have an
impact on the existing queues _and_ also records other information.

And no, I don't expect the queues to be empty because of a reboot
(unless, possibly, that reboot comes about because of a power
failure at just the wrong time or hardware failure. :-))

Do you also define the forms and queue characteristics at startup ?
