I don't have a clue yet. I do a little hacking away at vbscript (hardly a programming language) and I remember the days of c-64 basic. even used it a lot back then. but I want to start all over and have a good long look at my options. tia, Dr.X PS: sorry if this is not the right ng to post to but I couldn't find a more relevant ng name in the list except for comp.lang and all it had was spam in it.
