Can't you just       write a web service to handle this?              Of course, as this group is for VB6 (and below), rather than VB.NET, you       should look for a group with "dotnet" in the name to ask further questions.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
