It is true that using a var as the encoding type doesn't work. Went through that a while ago with another client. The easiest thing to do is just dupe your folder of TAFs and run them with a search and replace routine. You'll be done in 2 minutes and have a 5.0 folder and a 5.5 folder of code. Once you've moved to 5.5 hopefully you won't have to look back. Robert
