I find Stuffit very useful and it is the default compression method for Macs. It decompresses just about any file that anyone has ever sent me, and I personally find it very useful - wouldn't be without it. I will gladly mail you the Expander component. Are you on a Mac or a PC? Cheers, Cotty ___/\__ || (O) | People, Places, Pastiche ||=====| www.macads.co.uk/snaps _____________________________
