(yes, i *did* say a _long_ time ago...) However, he turned it down, because apparently he has something "different" planned for some aspects of the way drivers work... I guess this difference would render "flags" irrelevant... <sigh> nothing like duplicated and re-duplicated work! Chris -- Chris G.
