Why not host them on a third party site and get CTM to provide a link from their "support" page. They could make it a feature together with advertising this list. Some time ago this worked for Nisus where many users contributed macros. Kirk McElhearn ran the "Nisus Corral" where the macros were kept. All support was done by Nisus list members. Just occasionally a Nisus staffer might intervene on the list to contribute technical advice, but this was neither solicited nor expected. This way the scripts get advertised without CTM having to deal with support issues. If CTM are prepared to revamp their support page to give prominence to the list and the script collection, and third parties are prepared to host the scripts, everybody wins. cheers, Chris
