RO> For myself I'd try TB's scheduler first, but YMMV Thanks for the suggestion. The Scheduler is very flexible and looked like the ideal solution. Unfortunately, it fails periodically after sending outgoing mail. The Scheduler simply stops functioning. Oh well. I guess the bugs still have not been worked out of it. -- Code 2 mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] The Bat! version 2.11 on Windows XP Service Pack 1 Outside a second-hand store: We exchange anything - bicycles, washing machines etc. Why not bring your wife along and get a wonderful bargain. ________________________________________________ Current version is 2.11.02 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
