Translated, that means >"it's not my fault, it's not my fault!" Actually the format of the system version field is 0xMMmf where MM is the major release, m is the minor release and f is the "fix" level Thus for 6.0.2 it contains 0x0602. Note that the terms all mine, but that does give you the encoding format. Opinions: MINE, ALL MINE! (greedy evil chuckle) David W. Berry apple!dwb@sun.com dwb@apple.com 973-5168@408.MaBell
