That might be the easiest, but all I get is an empty file. I've tried many different variations of the syntax using exec(), but nothing produces any subsistent output. What am I doing wrong? As for accessing a command line, I am still in the dark as to how to do that. Cheers, tedd -- ------- http://sperling.com/
