Wow, it looks like I need to upgrade my hardware. I thought 4 vertex texture units is generous. I have no problem with setting that limit to, say, 16. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
