The NARA report I linked to in my reply to Bob actually addresses some issues related to Chron Files. If you have time, scroll down and read the section on "Chronological Files" and Disposition Job NC1-263-85-1, etc. It's a good illustration of what can happen with them, despite the best efforts of records managers. Let me list again the URLs for the three items to linked to, in case I messed them up in my earlier posting.
