You can use @LOGNAME to get the NT user that the phantom is logged in as. Do you really need to open the same file as the select? You can use fileinfo after you open it to show your permissions on it.
What if you tried setting up a different VOC entry for that file? Maybe (but I doubt it) you could "fool" it. What about copying the items into a temp file and doing the open there? hth Colin Alfke back in chilly Calgary >-----Original Message----- >From: Doyen Klein [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > >I've wondered about that.
