Thanks Tom. And thanks for the inclusion of VBS. I think that helps to clarify my intent further, as does the remainder of your reply.

Now I do think that I'd like to explore this idea too but think it is far too premature to consider it as a "wish" item.
Since I have next to nil exposure to .NET, I'll have to sit back and hope that a thread or two develops to discuss this.

Cheers
