Good point; though it's been so poorly implemented in 2K and XP that I keep forgetting it's there. I haven't been able to get a single 2K or XP machine working properly under a non-admin account, so I haven't even tried for a couple of months. But I'm much happier with Linux and its ownership rules anyway. -- Richard S. Crawford http://www.mossroot.com
