Hi Nancy
You're welcome. The KB article applies to XP as well - at least the options
seem to work here OK.

| Will,
| THANK YOU! THANY YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!
|
| I knew it had to be a switch. I just couldn't find what it
| was. And another thank you for the very quick reply.
|
| BTW, the Knowledge Base article you referred to below
| states that it only applies to Windows 2000 and NT. Should
| it also list XP or is there another article that applies
| to XP? I guess I can do my own search now that I know what
| to look for, but I thought I would point this out.
|
| Did I remember to thank you?
