Well, they like it because of the _HUGE_ VB community out there. Freely sharing and swapping VB source code is a favorite pastime of such programmers. You just copy and paste what you need, tweak a couple lines, and it generally works. I've never heard of a single lawsuit over such behavior because no one who uses VB really cares as long as it works. It is a copyright lawyer's nightmare. -- Thomas Hruska CubicleSoft President Ph: 517-803-4197 *NEW* VerifyMyPC 2.0 Change tracking and management tool.
