Monte, I just went through the same hassle tonight. I ended up using Microsoft Personal Web Server on my Mac and put files there. I could then easily transfer them to my PC by opening up a browser with the IPAddress of my Mac and downloading the files directly to my PC. It's fast and cheap (free) from Microsoft. Go to the downloads section there and search on MacOS and Personal Web Server.

Thanks for this info. Problem for me is, my Windows network rarely works correctly, much less is it as easy to setup/manage as a Mac network. :-) Regards, Scott _____________________________________________________________________ Scott Rossi Tactile Media - Multimedia & Design Creative Director Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Web: www.tactilemedia.com
