Thanks for the help. I hoped this would work. I hope I don't have to

both would work - if you put in the name of the server and it does not
work
it might be that wins or the lmhost file is not set up correctly. I
normally
use the server name as all i have to do is delete the domain part of the
entry but i have used both methods with out any problems.
