It is called Acknowldge and costs gasp...$495.00 but the runtime version may be free. I am a developer of Acknowldge applications and it is a very nice package. I have just completed a full Mac interface for Portal...a Sun system but more user friendly. It took me about a week to do part time. The program I just did lets you click on line on the screen that contains the file names and it automatically downloads it for you after sending all the setup info Portal wants. Anyway if you can afford it Acknowldge is one way to do what you want with little pain other than the price of the software. I am not connected to SuperMac, the maker of Acknowldge in any way. I am just a happy user of this new and powerful product. Bob LaserMan Murrow LaserMan@cup.portal.com
