Will that have the WIN SDK >books? You are correct. It is less hastle and sometimes cheaper to buy a new copy than upgrade. In the UK it cost pds99 for the Upgrade plus pds99 for the SDK books 99+99 is very near 200 :-) My complaint to MS was met with sympathy, but no real reason for charging the same price for upgrades as new. -- =================== Malcolm S.
