>>In VBScript this is kind of understandable. Afterall, the design environment isn't exactly the best. It's Notepad. However, in VB proper, if I forget the "Then", I get prompted just as soon as I hit return with a dialog saying something like "Expected 'Then'". If I type "EndIf" the editor automagically makes it "End If".

>After tranferring your Loader code (Remember the WSH learning curve of mine?) I kept getting these errors running the VBS script. Spent way too much time trying to figure it out and nearly gave up. Then, after thinking on how you wouldn't likely upload code riddled with syntax error, I realized that I had copied a portion of the Foxpro code (used to create a script if desired) into the VBS file. The error was on the "EndIf" vs the "End If" statements.

Renoir,

I'm glad you got it working. Before Gonzo (John Koziol) was absorbed by the Borg< g >, I had sent him some new code for the loader generator. I can private you with a sample if you like.

The EndIf business bites me far too often. I'm thinking about using the VB editor to help me out.:-)

Regards (from an all too human),
George
