That's not the problem. The problem is that "Set up Applications" only looks at drives in your path. This is true even for the current drive. (e.g. if you're on D: and run Win 3.0 you still can't set up apps from D: unless D:\something is in your path. Kinda stupid, huh?) -- D. Gordon Smith Voice: (613) 738-1338 ext 6118 P.O.
