And I have to admit that it is one that I had not considered (not being a Security Monitor user). I am unfamiliar with the product since I have not worked for a company that wanted it. The last 2 not willing to spend the money on what they deamed as a 'partial product' (arriving at the decision without asking me:)). I shall request some information from HP on the product and hopefully will get a chance to see it run so that I can make an informed decision (or in my case, suggestion). Thanks for your help. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Michael P.
