thanks David. that worked perfectly. Up to this point I've been using old Millennium, and this is quite a nice change.

hello Dan;

give this a try;


XP Log-On





This can be accomplished very simply:

1.  From the run dialogue, type exactly what you see on the next line
exactly the way you see it:

control userpasswords2



This will open a special dialogue from which you can select your own user
account to log on by default.

2. You will land on a checkbox that says, Users must enter a user name and
password to use this computer checkbox checked.  Leave it checked for now
and

tab once.

3. You should hear: Users for this computer: list view administrator
administrator.

4. Arrow down to your name.  It should say something like your name and
administrator, like Dan administrator.

5. Tab back around to that checkbox that said, users must enter a user name
and password to use this computer, and hit the space bar to uncheck it.

6.  Tab to apply and hit the space bar.

7. Then tab to the okay button and hit the space bar!

Your done, your computer should boot up now without having to log in.

Basically you have now told the computer to automatically log you in without
requiring you to type the information in.

Subject line says it all, but since I am the only one using this machine
anyway, having to press enter every time I boot up seems silly, but I would like some guidance with this so I don't inadvertently lock myself out of my
own machine.
thanks.
