Yeah, everybody likes a good argument. Why do you think I read these things? I also wholeheartedly agree with you 4 items. Especially # 4. It drives me nuts when people on this thread call all VB developers "Hacks" or somthing like that. You don't make a point being unprofessional like that.

I'll start my scrapbook Monday.
