Hi Rob, No, I don't think I missed the point. That is exactly what we take advantage of. An interesting point is that it functions better with 64 bit VM. With 32bit VM, if you used a silly number greater than 2047M, you got a different error message that did NOT show the maximum storage allowed. And, no, I don't think it is cheating to use such a feature to tell a user the maximum facilities they are allowed to use in a user friendly way. After all it is the users that keep us in a job ;-) Colin Allinson Amadeus Data Processing
