The "1m per user plus a chunk for MPE" is if you wrote it all yourself hand-coded for this application. The "more memory than you said" people are using higher-powered tools. Of course, y'all knew that after going through the DOS-->Windows transition. -- /\--. John Beckett "Fresh outta sigs" / \ ) Southern College of SDA /----\---.
