Thanks for the offer of help but the dayam bug beat me! I had to dump everything and reinstall XP. I could see what was causing the problem but I couldn't find out how to get rid of it. Very frustrating to say the least. Again, thanks for the offer. I'm sure there were many in line ahead of me. DWest
