Thanks, Chris, for solving the mystery. I had assumed (bad thing to do) that this was the equivalent of "Start TB at log on" which seemed a reasonable enough thing to do.

Otherwise, how would anyone ever know?? Agreed, Wayne. What is the intent? If the system "halts" (I equate that with "crash" or "blue screen of death", TB would then start when the computer restarts. This differs slightly from "start TB at log on" (which would ALWAYS start TB) because it would re-start TB only if it had been running at system halt -- but the difference is so minor (if I'm interpreting it properly) as to be missed by most people. Documentation continues to be the weakest part of TB's otherwise stellar operation. -- Bill Blinn Technology Editor ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) - 1/8/2004 at 6:38 AM Technology Editor, Newsradio 610 WTVN, Columbus, Ohio Using The Bat! v2.02.3 CE on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 1 Random thought: I don't need a disclaimer.
