Kevin / Glenn,
Thank you for the replies. I posted this question on another user
group and got slightly ripped by one of the posters. They wanted to
know why I was trying to manaully fire an Event that I didn't write
the Handler. Other then it seemed like a good idea at the time, I
could come up with an answer. But based on their response, fine ok,
I'll write my own Event, handel it, and fire it when I needed too.
Some developers get soooo touching that way :-)
