hi Scott, I'd try 'manually' adding your classfile to your mdxfile. An mdx or mod file is a zipfile, Associate those file-extensions w/ WinZip. Also, turn on Paths in WinZip > Options > Configuration > View > Columns. Dbl-click your mdx file so it opens in a WinZip app- window. Drag your classfile from Explorer & drop it in the WinZip window, an Add dlog will open, both 'save full path' & '8.3 format' should be unchecked. hth
