I won't say the Registry is the best of the "inventions" but, think of something. What if you and me were to share the same machine as different Windows users (i.e. with different login). Whose settings and Preferences should TB keep in the ini file? Should we share the same message base (i.e. mail directory)? Even if we use different mail accounts we would be forced to password protect each account and, even so, why should I see your accounts in my folder tree and you see mine in yours? Etc., etc., etc. Try it. Create another user and then log off and login as the new user and see what happens. -- Best regards, Miguel A.
