Indeed, that wouldn't do. So you're using mseide-msegui on a Windows 95, 98 or ME machine? What processor, and how's the performance? :-O In fact, I'm not aware that this would even work (although it's not impossible). And any newer version of Windows doesn't even really support running from a FAT partition (although some might tolerate it, with restrictions). At some point, I heard, MS even wanted to drop the FAT support completely - this might have cause an arousal among customers and industry alike, as nearly all the memory-card-using gagdets (MP3 players, cameras, GPS devices and others) used to use FAT as their file system. It would have been just an enourmous effort to upgrade all those to be able to use NTFS, as most of them wer driven by processors that were far too feeble. But apart from that, yes, your objection is valid, if you insist on being able to use mseide-msegui on a FAT file system. -- (Weitergabe von Adressdaten, Telefonnummern u.ä. ohne Zustimmung nicht gestattet, ebenso Zusendung von Werbung oder ähnlichem) ----------------------------------------------------------- Mit freundlichen Grüßen, S.
