Oh I agree - unfortunately since it does still have an entry point you can't really tell if it's a toolkit bug (no documentation/header) or if it is truly outdated and just kept around for compatibility. I think I'd vote the latter since there really isn't any mention of it that I can find. -- -- David -- /-----------------------------------------------------------------------\ \ David Bolen \ Internet: db3l@ans.net / | Advanced Network & Services, Inc. \ Phone: (914) 789-5327 | / 100 Clearbrook Road, Elmsford, NY 10523 \ Fax: (914) 789-5310 \ \-----------------------------------------------------------------------/
