>This corrected the problem. However, I don't know why FOCUS.FLL would need this to run ALL of the functions instead of generating the error ONLY for those functions that require Winsock. There are only a few functions in focus that require Winsock to be installed but focus will generate an error upon load if winsock is not available. Maybe they can correct this issue. I have email Pat to see if this can be accomplished.
