Yea, turned out to be something like that.  I had tried flushing the ostream (ofile) and the fstream (file2),and had tried deleting them also.   But I needed to also flush the filtering_streambuf (out),
Thanks for the help,
Eric

 I'm not an iostreams expert, but I bet you need to flush and/or close
your stream.  If you were deleting it (something you also want to do)
that would probably do it for you.
