Great! I hope that works because my attempts to use a copy operation to get around the issue isn;t working... mainly because the file system isn;t going to allow me to copy a file that is already open. Speaking of which, is there some reason (besides a possible performance hit) that you keep the pcf file open? re, evan Attention: PowerPro's Web site has moved: http://www.ppro.org Yahoo!
