Razzak, Absolutamente! And, we concurrently use both glorious versions throughout our company...one of many reasons we are loyally committed to R:base since 1986. Not the least of which is this rlist and fantastic community of R:base users!
However, since this one report is part of our invoicing package originally written in the DOS version, didn't want to change venues (how horrible to have to press Alt + Tab!). Depending on response from the Rlist, we may very well take the Windows route. Great to have this option. Thanks again! Brad "A.
