Thank you so much for the help. I owe you one - Email me anytime if you have a question you think I might be able to help with, particularly something related to one of the Windows OS's, VB programming or hardware-related questions. I'd be happy to try and help with anything you need. ...and I really don't care if one of the commands fails and cause the others to fail as well - no harm done, just a couple of error messages. This was exactly what I was looking for.
