Hi Anthony, I may have been thinking of Win 3.0 or sumfin. I know that I have had strange things happen when people just delete the swap file or it's mate in the WINDOWS directory. I've found the most reliable thing to do is to remove set Windows for a temporary swap file before you start playing with it in this area. Hence, as part of my "follow the least aggravating route" philosophy, that's what I do. Cheers, Brenton --- PQWK200* Origin: TestPoint (3:711/934.7) SEEN-BY: 711/934 @PATH: 711/934 |
