I was wondering if anyone else is experiencing this unpleasant phenomena that we are on machines here that have NT 4.0 with office 2000 installed. When I email someone a dbf file with the above on their computers, their file association for a dbf is to open excel but it doesn't work, instead these messages appear something like 'temporary.xls cannot be found. It works fine on windows 2000 however. Maybe it's just us. -TB
