Garrett,

Why I would want to "kill VFP" is beyond me.

You are absolutely correct, however, about me 'getting my facts straight" and for this I apologize. . .

The reference regarding limited control support was *not* under the ActiveDoc heading, but rather under the "Other Internet Support" and in particluar the File > SaveAsHTML option. I had erroneously skipped that sub-title as I was reading. A simple error, but a costly one. I shall take a remedial reading course before future comments.

That's where I (erroneously) got it from.

Regards,

Jim N
