When a TIF quits, it exits and is unloaded like a regular application. When a PIF exits, the same thing happens, but the program itself is not unloaded from memory. ----------------- Jeffrey Hutzelman America Online: JeffreyH11 Internet/BITNET:jh4o+@andrew.cmu.edu, jhutz@drycas.club.cc.cmu.edu, jh4o@cmuccvma >> Apple // Forever!!! <<
