Hi David and Dar, So I wasn't jumping the gun _after all_ *grin* I knew there was a workaround somewhere, even if it involved AppleScript. And to say that a few weeks ago I _did_ point out that it wouldn't work under MacOS X. About time I replace my trusty ol' Performa 5200 with one of those yummie 17inch iMacs... *drool* Anyone have good tips on how to ask for a raise? ;-) Yours quirkily, Jan Schenkel. ===== "As we grow older, we grow both wiser and more foolish at the same time."
