I have a whole bunch of 0 byte npc files. (I have to clean out backups
that've become useless)

Han -

I'm sure you do without a doubt! - I've seen Intuit refer to them on their
website; I just don't know what they are for. Perhaps some folks are using
some function or facility within Q than I'm not. I just don't know.

Andrew,
Have you tried deleting them and seeing whether they return? They
certainly aren't updated every time.

Han - no, as I said in my original append (maybe it wasn't clear?) that I
personally have never seen these in my Quicken data directories. Until
Lenny mentioned them in the first post in this thread, I was unaware of
their existence. Thus, my eagerness to update and repost the doc that Jay
referenced.
So, do *you* know why they might appear in your use of Q, since apparently
you have them?!

I have no idea why I have the npc files. I use quicken for tracking
investments (I download quotes just about daily). I use ONe-Step-Update
for checking, savings and credit cards, and use it for paying a number of
payees (mainly through Citibank). I make some reports every once in a
while.

The npc files seem to have a datestamp that recently recurs once a week,
but why Tuesdays? And why did it start 6/24/2006?
