Matt;

Thanks for the info. Obviously, I've got lots to learn about using Win32Lib.
I've spent some time looking at some of the code in Win32Lib, (all 18,612 lines
in v.50), and came away a bit shaken,
but extremely grateful that Win32Lib is there. I can't conceive of having to
deal with all of that, myself.

Thanks for the help, Matt, and thanks for your work on Win32Lib.

Regards,

Jerry
