If you're running PHP4.0.3 downloaded from either www.php.net or www.php4win.de, then you already have the compiled versions of both the IMAP and LDAP extensions. Look in your extensions folder and you should see the files php_imap.dll and php_ldap.dll. You'll need to uncomment these extensions in your [extensions] section of php.ini. Then if you run a phpinfo() script with these extensions loaded, you should see sections of the page for both IMAP and LDAP. You can then start using the functions associated with each extension :) -- Andy Hoffman Web Developer Bristol-Myers Squibb email: andy.hoffman@bms.com
