Oh boy, what a run around for such a simple resolution. I am very grateful having a 'native' Perl/TK for Cygwin vs. having to using ActivePerl and shell out to Cygwin scripts, but this could have been an easier transition. Yes, I will look for the release with much anticipation and test as soon as it does. Thank you, Brett ---------------------------------------------------------------- Brett C.
