Just some OT info on the internet taken from the September 1, 1999 PC Magazine, page 9. Allen, you might like this info. A test of 11 search engines revealed that the best of them -- Northern Light -- only covered 16% of the web's more than 800 million pages. The scientists doing the research said that using metasearch engines such as MetaCrawler, which combine the results of multiple engines provide a substantial improvement to the returns. BTW, Alta Vista was number 2 in the group at 15.5% while Yahoo posted a dismal 7.4% return of pages. Happy hunting. Stan
