Could you give some more details?
I haven't tried to use checkpointing in a FastExport, but it seems that ordinarily you wouldn't need it. Since you are exporting data, no
updates are happening in the database, so why take checkpoints? If you want to take one after every so many records in your output file, you could
do so in an OUTMOD.
The documentation does say that code 3 in an INMOD means "a checkpoint has been written", but I can't see much use for that either. Perhaps
others will enlighten us.
