The long term answer would be for Ritlabs to keep TB!'s settings in an ini file instead of the registry - I think MS have been recommending for a couple of years that application specific settings are kept in ini files (or perhaps XML files nowadays). Agent does this and, since I keep all my 'well behaved' apps on the D: drive, after an OS re-install they are all available for immediate use, since they don't need any registry settings to work. -- Best wishes Jeff Gaines Damerham Hampshire UK ________________________________________________ Current version is 3.00.00 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
