Thanks for your reply Ted. And according to the BBC "Footage has been captured
in southern California of possibly the world's worst traffic jam during the
great US Thanksgiving getaway."
Yes we are using Report Listeners.
My (empirical) testing so far has revealed no issues. But I have a further
question - I have MSXML3 and MSXML6 installed and the following both work
CreateObject("Msxml2.FreeThreadedDOMDocument.3.0")
CreateObject("Msxml2.FreeThreadedDOMDocument.6.0")
Whereas CreateObject("Msxml2.FreeThreadedDOMDocument.4.0") fails as one would
expect.
BUT if I use CreateObject("Msxml2.FreeThreadedDOMDocument") it works but how
would I find out which version of MSXML the object has been created from?
Thanks again
Paul Newton

Expect slow replies from the US as today is a national holiday.
Are you using Report Listeners in your application?
You should be able to test this empirically: if you can run all the functions
of your app with MSXML4 removed, you should be all set.
