Thanks for the correction. You've obviously not ever used a system that allowed you to use two screens effectivly. It's very nice to debug on one screen and run your code on the other, just as much as simply having the extra screen real-estate. the Mac's treatment of multiple screens and the ease with which the user can configure a multi-screen system is truely one of the nicer things about a macintosh. You could've very easily picked some of the expanssion options that are truely debatable for usefullness, but saying the ability to configure a multi-screen system is not a USEFUL system just shows how closed minded and un-imformed you really are. -- \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\|///////////////////////////////////////// David M.
