1.1.7 if I remember correctly. I hope you didn't spend any of your hard earned cash on VJ++ ;-). If I were you (and I was once) I would run as far away from VJ++ as possible. I'll second Chris on NetBeans (http://www.netbeans.org), it is an awesome Java IDE (it's even written in Java and 100% portable). It's actually probably the best one on the market. At least from what I have seen, and I have looked into all the majors (JBuilder, VisualCafe, VisualAge, etc). /mike -- ****************************************** Mike Dougherty -- Java Software Engineer ****************************************** Sometimes when you look into his eyes you get the feeling that someone else is driving. -- David Letterman
