Hi Rene

The conversion worked a treat and MS works flawlessly and crashes in 
true MS style while trying to open the html.

Oh well guess I had better switch to Explorer as my default browser. 
Will try that later. Too much MS at once is just too depressing.

Thank you for the help.

Sorry for the email reply Rene
