Yes it is a shame that some people have a problem. I have too at various times. But that is something that we put up with to support something that is *very affordable* (i.e. free) and that works on many more systems than it doesn't ... we try it, identify errors and help the author get them fixed. And every version does get better and bugs that can be identified are fixed.

But he cannot do it in a vacuum. It is not easy for an **individual** without the resources of someone like Microsoft to be able to test on all possible hardware-software configurations out there. He relies on us to give him useful feedback about how things fail. I am sure he would welcome your help identifying bugs. Have you written to him to see if, between the two of you, you can figure out what is not working so he can fix it? I know that, at least in the past, he has worked with others that have had problems and took the time to contact him about working through the problem.

Maybe you should invest the requisite thousands of dollars in one of the "main stream" solutions. They work (mostly) <weg> -- Best regards, MikeD mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Using The Bat! v2.12.00 on Windows ME 4.90 Build 3000 ________________________________________________ Current version is 3.00.00 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
