Thanks for your explanation. I do have Jbindery which i have downloaded
from Apple which is part of the MRJ SDK 2.1 package. But it is not exactly
easy to use it. I can't drop stuffs on it. The Jbindery icon does not
become shadowed (usually indicating that the files are not an input for
it). Please could u explain to me how to use this thing ?.......

Thanks again..
