Hi MIke.

Re: the requirement to recompile the new .exe, I should state that I am using Windows NT 4.0 SP 6 and very definitely, you cannot work with .fxp's.

Ah. This is a piece of information that I did not have. Well, it is not surprising that you have issues when your OS is so ancient < s >.

Obviously, there are going to me issues when you try to mix very old and very new technologies in a single environment. This is to be expected.

I could buy another computer with NT2003 and transfer everything but I have ended up developing my own tools that deal with the NT 4.0 limitations.

I would think that with hardware being so cheap these days, getting a new machine (or at least upgrading your OS to Win XP Pro if the hardware supports it), would be WAY cheaper than spending hours and hours of your own time developing work arounds to deal with the problems inposed by old technology. Just my $.02.

I agree with you that I do not go to enough conferences and I will definitely go next year.

Good! I am looking forward to seeing you then < s >
