Don't do that! The Win32 date command is interactive - it expects you to change the date. Besides, what was wrong with the "localtime" and "time" functions which work equally well on Linux|HPUX|Win(9x|2000|NT)|AIX|Solaris etc? Oh well, there must be time for: $sum = `add.pl $a $b`; Jonathan Paton :o) __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
