I read the page but don't see any real connection. What I have going on is 1 rouge windows98 machine that doesn't want to play very well. The same code that works on about 89 other machines using the same runtime files etc. Doesn't want to work on this one machine. Thanks for the reference tomorrow I will look at it some more and see what I can come up with.

Thanks again for the reference
