Also, the doc has some pretty explicit directions for setting this application up. You can't just download it to any old disk and launch it immediately - it'll bomb. You have to dedicate an entire disk to it, and you must follow the directions for freeing up space on the disk. It takes a while to set up, but it's worth it. If you've read and Followed the intructions, and it still doesn't work, send me mail and I'll send you a copy that worked for me. -- --JB (Beth Christy, U. of Chicago, ..!ihnp4!gargoyle!sphinx!beth) "I once heard the remainder of a colony of ants, which had been partially obliterated by a cow's foot, seriously discussing the intentions of the gods towards their civilization." -- Archy the Cockroach
