Hm, that's to bad. Unfortunately I know my coding abilities are probably not up to the task at this time (I posted the error I got to the emulation list) so I think I'm stuck. As I mentioned on emulator though, If someone else want's to take up the challenge (not like there isn't enough to do already ;) I could see my way to spending the $47 to get them a copy of WABI. -Sean -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Sean J.
