E11 is a bit of a problem. I'm running E11 3.0 demo. I have to run it on a machine that still has Windows ME. All the other machines run XP now, and E11 doesn't seem to work under XP. I tried to get to www.dbit.com to see if there's a fix, but the site seems to be gone. -- Jonathan Engdahl http://users.safeaccess.com/engdahl "The things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal."
