If you search my postings during that time, I expect there will be too many. Unless, that is, the archive doesn't go back that far. I don't think that it will help solve your problem though, as it was related to C-Win98. AT> I am not having anything Chinese or otherwise exotic on my AT> machine. It is a plain old Win XP Home machine, Dutch version. I think it had to do with double-byte characters at the time. Dutch doesn't use that. If I remembered at least part of the registry path, I would direct you. Age has taken it's toll, but I will try again with some Gingko Biloba.
