I never thought it was a typo. I don't think anyone else did either. Had me a bit puzzled too because of the way it was continually used. I thought Chris meant it and assumed he was referring to a "clash" between the problem program and other stuff he was running. I wondered why he didn't specify the other "problem(s)" to help someone supply a diagnosis of his problem. Cheers, Ian S. -- Ian Staples MS-Mail: staplesi@dpi.qld.gov.au c/- P.O.
