Well, that can surely break BC Peter if one used to cast a TaskDef into a Definer, no? Sure, it's not sensible code, but it's not 100% BC. All the old methods might still be there, so it's only 99.999% BC, which is fine by me ;-) I'm just neat picking here. --DD --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
