Mike,

If I believed in multiple Gods, you would certainly be one.

Since I don't, a heartfelt Thanks will have to suffice. It worked very nicely.

Perhaps you can give me one more tip regarding the multimedia player control.

The form with the .avi file opens and begins playing. I would like control where it opens on the page, loose the border, and cntrol any other window property.

Questions is: how do I address the form that is created by the control? I cannot figure out what the name of the window is so I can manipulate it. Any idea?

Thanks again.

Jim Oswald
