Hi Bill,

That's what I was afraid of. As I mentioned in my post (^&$$%@ HTML tags< g >), I used both oExcel = NULL and RELEASE oExcel, just to be sure with no affect. I would hope that someone (preferably running Win 98 SE) would confirm this though, even if I'm already pretty sure of the answer.

Excuse me, I've got install Win2K RC2 now< g >.
