Hey Bob:

It's been a long time ... how are you? Tampa huh? Man, don't ja just luv the weather :-).

Thanks for the xp_cmdshell stored procedure ... I didn't know about that one (which joins a long line of other's I don't know about). Live and learn ... SQL Server sure is nice and stable as compared to some of the experiences I've had with VFP tables ... but I can also say I sure don't know it as well as I did VFP.

Take care and thanks again.
