Del,

You were right it isn't automatically loaded in v6.
Actually I cheated :-0. Since I'm on maintenance I emailed directly and found out you have to instantiate the utils object directly. You hardly need it anymore, because most of it supplies the functions that now are a part of VFP, so I simply made replacements.

Thanks,
Rich

I'm going from memory here on the details, but I'm sure it's still there. I faced this exact problem when I moved to 6 at my prior company. I'm now working for another company and I'm back to using 5.1 so I can't verify.
