Group T - Trailer Transactions 

Transaction records from this group may appear on the end of a
Transaction File and are numbered from 200000 onwards.

Several of these records may appear.  The position of the first of them
will, on output, be given in the first transaction record (tt_body_type).

Transaction records in this group appear in files output by the HP Desk
Intrinsics themselves and identify the files that are associated with
this Transaction File.

200000 - Referenced File Identifier (tt_referenced_file) 

This is only output with HPDUserReceive and HPDGateReceive.  It is
ignored on input.  It identifies a content file that this Transaction
File references and that has already been specified in previous Group 4
transactions.  Several of these transaction records may appear at the end
of the Transaction File, one for each content file.

Applications programmers are strongly recommended to use these
transaction records in messages output from HP Desk, so as to determine
which files referenced by any particular Transaction File are to be
deleted once processing is complete.  It may be that a Transaction File
output by HP Desk is not of interest, or is not recognized by the user's
application.  These records provide a standard means to identify
referenced files.
