Wow, thanks all for your help.. I really hadn't decided which one I wanted,
as we hadn't fully realized the feature yet (do I just want them to be able
to say where to put the file, or should I allow them to rename the file as

the (beta?) version of these for the mac, I should be fine.
Thanks all for your quick responses!!!
Cory.
