This is making much more sense now. You should have mentioned the fact that it was a "packaged" behavior and not code you had written yourself in your original post. Regardless, a look at the code would allow us to be much more helpful to you. It's possible that there's an obsolete bit o' lingo in there (maybe "the pathname"), one of those things that has been phased out but *might* still work in a later version. Or, it might be using the applicationPath, and might ignore the following (from the help): "If you use the applicationPath followed by & and a path to a subfolder, enclose the entire expression in parentheses so that Lingo parses the expression as one phrase." That looks like one of those things that might not always be a failing line of code, but is a flaky one. Can you cut and paste the guts of the behavior for us? Can't spot the error in something we can't see. -Kurt [To remove yourself from this list, or to change to digest mode, go to http://www.penworks.com/lingo-l.cgi To post messages to the list, email [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Problems, email [EMAIL PROTECTED]).
