Why exactly is it 'beyond my control'?? 1. Yea I will try that. I've been trying before and not had many consistent results (I felt posting on here was a long shot really, more of a "with any luck someone will look at it and go, umm your not supposed to do that else it will cause that", no such luck I guess :-) ). Often when debuging it works then one day it stops (at moment using it as part of automated installs for a test rig, every so often it stops updating files, but lately been consistently failing, with the odd success). I guess I will just have to be persistent, sooner or later I will notice something I am doing wrong I guess :-).
2. Developers above me. I originally set up using the COM+ extension then when someone found out, I was queried and basically asked to move back to the custom scripts we had used before. In the end its not my decision. I can sort of understand their thinking, "its never failed us before so why change it", but that's not a justification I always agree with.
