Hello Remy,

I tried those and didn't have much luck... I then went to look for some info
on the 'openas' verb and couldn't find it anywhere. Where abouts is that
documented? The only ones I could see were edit, explore, find, open, print
or NULL. The problem could lie elsewhere, but I thought I would look for a
bit more info on openas first.

Thanks,

Vesty.
