>Thanks. I guess for me, with respect to the notion "What path do we take?", I'd have to think long and hard here. If all my users had W95/98 'puters I'd probably go the VFP route. If all had W2K loaded I'd be a lot more tempted to go the WSH route.

I've begun to adopt the philosophy of "Distribute Everything". My setup puts the WSH, Foxtools, and MSXML redistributable on every machine. Even if I don't need them. The way I see it, if I start to build this infrastructure now, all of these tools are available to me on these machines without worry in the future when I DO need them.
