Thanks Mark, One thing that I am noticing is that on my Wife's 10.7.5 I am having problems launching apps that I built as stand-alones on my 10.8.2 machine as "Universal". I have to copy the stack over to 10.7.5 and then build from there in order for them to work. Not sure what that is about an

That is what I will check tomorrow. Cause I check on launch and write them there if they are not and the outsourcer app writes to there as well. I read them once loaded. What are you thinking Thanks Tom -- Tom McGrath III http://lazyriver.on-rev.com mcgra...@mac.com On Mar 14, 2013, at
