However, you may find that the amount of [repetitive] typing you do will be equivalent or greater than simply creating the form by hand. The best solution would probably be a form you fill out which asks you about all the fields you want, and then generates the code to paint the form. There are commercial solutions which do this, and some (not that great) free solutions. I'm working on one myself, which will eventually be a sourceforge/freshmeat project. Hi Paul. This sounds Great. Thanks for the advise. Just as a matter of interest do you know the location / path to Jay's class?
