I do not entirely disagree with your basic point. However, it's not just j.exe but all the associated code which supports the wd interface that a person could reasonably want to be using. Dropping j.dll into a J 6.02 install is a much more modular approach than incorporating most everything that relies on J.exe into J7. My personal suggestion would be to offer an installer for the deprecated j 6.02 distribution which includes J7's j.dll. -- Raul ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm
