Regards. Juergen, This is a bug in Widows itself (hasn't been fixed as of Windows XP). This bug has bitten me in VB programming at work. Perhaps MS would allege it is a feature. -- Mike Nelson http://click.topica.com/caab4CEb1dd66b7wDUhf/ Crazy Aaron Enterprises For Topica's complete suite of email marketing solutions visit: http://www.topica.com/?p=TEXFOOTER
