Thanks Dsvid. I am still confused though. I would prefer to write a small program using c than active x. Can I use the user routines independantly in a small c program? I plan to just invoke a small c program from ghost installer during the install process to install the prc files. I am not too clear on what I must include and if I should load the dll in my little c program? Am I way off or is this an okay way to do it?
