TD, Sorry you took offence to my comments - I meant no offence, but the point I'd like to make is, whilst you get tired of people like me as you say.. I'm just a bit fed up with some developers' snobby anti-Microsoft attitude who assume that anyone who's doing something on Windows must be brainless. I have more respect for those developers who are able to display a good all-round knowledge rather than those who limit themselves to Linux 'cos they think that makes them real programmers...
