If you have neither of these files it shouldn't make much difference, but if you have one, or have both but are different, it might not result in what the user expects. (It's obviously an easy fix if you know about it, but not at all obvious if you don't.) --keith -- kkeller at wombat.san-francisco.ca.us -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
