I think that you are right...It does appear that as soon as you select 'work
offline' it does not try to connect.
I think I tried the local IP address (127.0.0.1) as well. I will try this
tonight also.
Setting the connect via LAN is a good idea, I know I didn't try that. (I tried
the never connect option though to no avail)
I don't have a network card in the computer. Where can I find information in
the loopback adapter? (microsoft I assume?)
Thanks again for the ideas!
