That certainly works, thank you. However, the powers that be do not want to include any code that requires the WSH to be installed on workstations as we still support some older Win95/Win98 systems and they do not want to install the WSH if it doesn't exist. They want to use only win32 api code if possible that will always be available on all systems.
