I think more details are in the manual....but I've got to get back to some problems with our lame GroupWise system. Eric or Nathan will probably tell more soon. dan Dan Lester, Network Information Coordinator Albertsons Library, Boise State University, Boise, Idaho 83725 USA [log in to unmask] http://cyclops.idbsu.edu/ How can one fool make another wise?
