As others have already indicated, there is software out there that does not store any data in the registry. Virtual Access (mail and news client) does exactly this and copes with multiple accounts etc. I am not technically literate when it comes to programming but don't really see the need to store configuration data in the registry, especially in a program like The Bat! where the users in this forum like to 'transport' their installations. Using ini files would make life considerably easier in that respect. It would also make beta testing easier using ini files as you could run co-existing betas, just by running the exe for the beta which would load up configuration data from its own directory. Just my thoughts ;-) -- Tony Brookes [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.tonybro.com Using The Bat! v3.0.2.10 on Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 ________________________________________________________ Current beta is 3.0.9.1 Deep Alpha | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html IMPORTANT: To register as a Beta tester, use this link first - http://www.ritlabs.com/en/partners/testers/
