+1 :-) Confirm before close seems enough protection. Session restore can help start where you left off. Also it would be wild to create local patch that will change a standard program behavior only on a given platform. That would lead standard program to behave different on different platforms (and platform versions). Smells like Linux. Not good. -- CeDeROM, SQ7MHZ, http://www.tomek.cedro.info
