Thanks Antonio.

While I did try Help to see if there is a standard tool to do this, coming up with nothing is not surprising to me because me and MS do not 'think' the same way.

I am surprised that there really seems to be no way to do this except through registry manipulation.

It will be a nice exercise with VFP to do as you say (if I get around to it).

cheers
