Oooh, thanks for the input ... you must have been chuckling there for awhile, but, Mary ... you could have saved me and others bandwidth and grey matter. LOL! Just kidding 'ya!

I liked Greg's description of "how-to" and thought it a great function. He didn't chime in when I asked the initial question, so either he is/wa very busy and didn't see it or thought "Hey, I don't want to rehash it." MB> Skeptical, I gave it a try, and it did work.

I too am perfectly happy (within reason, that is In time I will more than likely "take the plunge", but I'm wondering how does RIT price all these upgrades? What I mean is ... every time there is a new release, does one have to pay for the upgrade? It would seem so, but they release so many upgrades within a short period of time, they're beginning to remind me of a few other software houses. MB> If you want this handy routine, you could try upgrading. It's free to MB> all 2.xx users. I'm not quite sure I understand ... the handy routine is free if I upgrade? Do I pay for the "actual upgrade", i.e., from Version 2.00.x to Version 2.11.x? I would think so, but since I haven't been into upgrading very much, I most certainly do not know. Hey, next time you see where "I'm digging myself into a hole here" ... please yell a wee bit earlier and ... "pull me out". Thanks, Mary. I really do appreciate your comments and what you have experienced with your past versions of The Bat! It is a good product and I do like it. Kind of a fun product to me. It opens up so many opportunities to ask so many questions. Take care. -- Best regards, subscriber2list ________________________________________________ Current version is 2.11.02 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
