likewise, I had just read about it a couple of months ago so I mentioned it. here's the original post .. I guess it was a back in aug so things have probably changed since then: http://blog.jimmy.schementi.com I've never really worked on any m$ languages other than visual c++ over a decade ago .. been doing java/linux since the late 90s so I can't really speak to .net based tools and technologies or how popular they are. -- Nimret Sandhu http://www.nimret.com http://www.nimsoft.biz
