This loop puts my CPU usage at 99 even if there is noting in the loop. Any idea?

that is correct... It basically does what you ask it to do....

just add a Sleep(100) to have it pause a little every loop..

Thank you very much... That sleep(1) will save me lots of processor time in at least 2 of my scripts.

Thanks again
