I appreciate the info, but I'm too busy (and lazy) to learn a bunch of new things right now. Could you just explain how I could do what I need? I have a huge book on VB, but it doesn't explain how to do this, or if it does, I can't find it . Most of the tutorials and books I've found give really round-about complicated ways of explaining simple things. I was just looking for a real-life explanation for someone who ISN'T a VB pro.
