Why can't you go on using IE for this purpose? What possible difference does it make that it won't be developed further? If it works for you now it will still work. I'm sure that long before we get to OS 10.5 or 11.0 when some incompatibility has crept in, Safari will have ironed out those glitches. -- Paul Berkowitz MVP Entourage Entourage FAQ Page: http://www.entourage.mvps.org/toc.html PLEASE always state which version of Entourage you are using - 2001 or X.
