However the files in the directory display without their filetypes, if I wish to be able to download them. If I deisplay them with their file types, they simply display on the screen as "binary text"? Anyone out there with any experience of this ye-olde-application ? cheers, Bob -- http://www.chalmers.com.au Books-New & Secondhand Support Whirled Peas. Agents for CIBTC.
