Thanks Peter. That occurred to me as well; unfortunately, I can't sell retrofitting hundreds of build.xml files in order to make this optional target stuff happen. Going forward you're absolutely right: all the subprojects should be using a common import & we plan to do that in a future release; the main issue is that these subprojects predate import support & the sheer volume of them means that a retrofitting effort will take too long and introduce too much risk to an effort that the bosses want done yesterday... ____________________________________________________________________________________________ Jeffrey E.
