Linux zealots here > might be considering banning me from the list too? but we don't do that. that's just the point. we know there are a lot of us here who do use ms products and we don't hold that against them, diba? there are even some threads in the (distant) past where good points of using ms products have been discused in a technical manner with no problems. <snip> peace! -eric -- �.--. �Enrique D.
