Are your operating systems the same? I had lots of problems with CharacterMap.exe (FM 9, Win XP). It would not close when FM was closed, and chewed up all my resources, bringing the system to a crawl. I had to use End Process on it to get the OS freed up again. I have not had the problem since changing to FM10 and Win 7 64. s. -- Stuart Rogers Technical Communicator Phoenix Geophysics Limited 3781 Victoria Park Avenue, Unit 3 Toronto, ON, Canada M1W 3K5 +1 (416) 491-7340 x 325 http://www.phoenix-geophysics.com
