The third sounds like something is missing from your dependancies. To track it down a little further, the question comes up, what madules are attempting to load when you get the errors? ======= Kirk Wood Cpt.Kirk at 1tree.net "When I take action, I'm not going to fire a $2 million missle at a $10 empty tent and hit a camel in the butt.
