Thanks, I think that gives me something to work with. I'm still learning VB now and I hope I can sharpin my skills as time goes on.

Another thing that I've been working on is adding a drop down box for an application that runs on pocket pc. For instance, I install the program on the handheld pc, then add the drop down box thats blank! When users enter data in the drop down box, somewhere on the pc it stores that information so that when the same user wants to enter the same infromation its in the drop down box and they dont have to retype the same thing. This could be used for user names when logging on the applicatioin. If for any reason the handheld pc had to be hard reset (clearing everything) then the users would have to start all over again from scratch with the drop down box. Any Ideas??
