Shangrilla- First to thank you. Will get back soonest after I try to figure out some Unix stuff of which I know nothing. Jack Still Cold in Georgia

Michelle- This is not a specific answer as I'm not good at visualizing others concepts. No go on an input mask so I looked for other alternatives. Have pondered this and will offer up a link that you might wish to study. Uses the ActiveX Calendar Control that ships with VFP as a...

Juan- Try something like this example from the command window. STORE 'MYNAME@ATT.NET' TO lcName ?LOWER(lcname) From the VFP Help: LOWER( ) converts all uppercase letters (A – Z) in the character expression to lowercase (a – z). All other characters in the character expression remain...

Derren- I have posted to the original thread on this subject: 184-219706 Thanks, Jack

Derren- Don't want to leave a thread "modal", I get upset at times when following a thread, or worse yet when a participant and the poster leaves without posting final outcome. Back to the problem. Removed Office. Installed afresh. oWord = CREATEOBJECT("Word.Application")...
