Thanks Dave,
followed your path to the download without a hitch. Still having trouble
with the download but it has nothing to do with access. All the BC listers
must be downloading the program as I just think it's busy. I'll try again
tomorrow. If Tony sees this I suggest he follow your directions.

Regards Bill.
