Me too, including the one for my laptop that deals with multiple screens if you ask it to. I wrote all that code and tested it on my live configuration. Those same configurations are still there today. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
