I apreciate your response. I have been around and I know what I was asking was out of the ordinary, but the sorcasim was unnacesery. I am in a bind and was hoping for an understanding ear, which Jon was kind enough to respond, but larry (be he as famous as he is....at least to those that admire him) needs to be more sensetive to newcomers. I realize now that I have only three choices :
1. hope that some one will allow me to decompile it.
2. learn the intricacies of Autoit.
3. or use one of the hundred other script macro compiler/executers.
Thanks for the kind words, and your thoughtfull response.
