  Heh.  That sounds a little familiar...

        ...but a lot more complicated!

        My breakthrough happened when I (finally!) realized where/when
things were being executed on the server and on the client, though
I'm sure I only have just enough understanding to have my problem
solved :-)

        I'm curious what you are doing.  Are you exporting objects from
various machines onto a single/central registry?

        LOL!  My old monitor started looking at me that way at some point
last night, and I got all paranoid and went into the other room :-)

cheers.
