Fur sure. I didn't write these. I got these from my "folder o' stuff" I
keep around that I have collected over time.

I like KIX much better!

Slightly off the vein of the current topic, but ya gotta agree, Ron,
vbscript - using either the WSHShell object, or WMI, is *considerably*
more unwieldy for registry stuff than something like Kix ;-)

I mean you can do it, but it's just such a pain.
