Rick,

I actually have the CodeBook 3 book and CD. Since we never did much development using VFP3, I haven't looked at it too much in the last 3+ years. How much different is the code at your web-site than what's in the book/CD?

Thanks for the information. Youse guys (can't tell I'm from Jersey, can ya!) at Flash have always been a great source of info for FoxPro!
