Bob
I appreciate the advice.. I am using the DOS6.0 version right now
getting
ready to bring it to our newly purchased DOS6.5 and then Win6.5
versions.
We have found that a DISC and CONN does the trick as well, but we wanted
a
cleaner answer. Going to have to wait until next week to see if it
works,
I have been on a few other little skirmishes<sp> since all this..
Lovin every minute of it..
