Hi John,
Nope I don't. Sorry. If I run into anything, however, I'll keep you in mind.
A couple of notes on the Winsock thing. For this to work, you'll have to have the MSWinsock ActiveX control installed. If you do, you can simply drop one of these on a form, and access the help file through there.
