Oh I agree. I took a look at Amazon SQS as I wasn't aware of it. I'm glad you told me about it even though I can't use it this time. One never knows for the future. I am not so arrogant to think that my reasoning could be in error. There maybe some really nice technology out there of which I am unaware which will solve all my problems, if so I welcome the information. With the information I originally gave Amazon SQS was a good and valid solution, and I do appreciate it. > > Any chance you could point me to the documentation now? > > A bit harsh, surely? I'm surprised you think so. If I offended my apologies. But you said above "[r]ather than answer your question", which I took to mean that you could have answered but you choose not to. If you are now withholding that information I find that "[a] bit harsh". Steve -- Steve Dobson The best way to accelerate a Macintoy is at 9.8 meters per second per second.
