Hello again,

What you are telling me doesnt make that much sense because
when you put a question mark followed by a variable
into an include file at the top level after that variable
has at least been initialized means Euphoria does one of 
two possible things:
1. opens a console and prints the variable value.
2. finds something wrong and prints an error message.

You might want to check to see that you have the three
lines at the very end of the connect.ew file and not
within a procedure.

All i was asking you to try was to
try to print those three variables at the end of the
connect file.  This is a very basic Euphoria troubleshooting
technique. Do you understand this?

You might also try putting the include for the connect.ew file
last, just before your first ServerPrint() call.


Take care,
Al
