If your technique is good enough for you, it's good enough for me. Thanks Rick and your check will be in the mail (literally since I'll be purchasing WC soon).

It's also a monitor for IIS if it crashes it'll automatically restart it (which BTW makes it even more difficult to update DLLs in a production environment).

>While debugging ASP I usually leave a Command Prompt running and then just flip back over there and hit it. While I debug my code and recompile the server can restart in the background - you can even add that to a compile script in your VFP code if you like, so you don't have to manually switch to the DOS window (you need to add a delay between the kill and restart though).
