You right i "miss-worded" that (if you do search further the reason it works will most certainly BE logical), lets do this again: Copying a file over into a place that makes something work is not an answer, an answer is 'the .dll must be placed here for x reasons'. Which i "bet" will if you go further into the matter be because 'folder x doesnt have the same permissions as the original folder'. What i mean is: The more you search for the reasons, the more you will understand the workings, the less you will have to fix the problems ;) > All in all, good post there mate, and appreciate you sharing > your mind! Thanks, and I sincerely hope you get thing up and running like you need them, and don't forget to have fun getting their ;) Regards, Tim -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
