Hi Len,
If you want to still try this with a Windows programming language try
OZEXE Lite at http://www.ozdevelopment.com. With built in support for

could just use a datasource for a text file. It's free by the way.

I think you might be right. I have been playing around with Linux at
home. What I may have to do in switch my mindset from IBM/Microsoft to
