>There are practical issues involved that will not allow me to do these suggestions (a) the client is in Cape Town, 1400 km away :), (b) they are running real time trading systems on production work stations. I really can't be messing with them during the day even if I was down there.

As winter is approaching here, flying to capetown sounds inviting<g>. I'ld prepare a special release which depending on a combination of machine name and file("MenuTrack.Flg") creates a log of the time and method/function called. As this is fast enough to run even on a production machine this could be used as soon as they receive it (and they can disable the log by simply deleting the flag file). Same procedure with coverage: They could test it during night time with you absent. Always the possibility to get fast, normal run by deleting the flag files. If you have an on-site contact minimally into computers this should be no problem. Dang, no reason for them to pay for a trip of mine...

Look into Remote Admin for nice working even over ISDN or telephone line

www.RAdmin.Com
