Hi Ann
Ok then where should I start, what version of code and where should I
acquire it from? what should I install on my SCO box to give it try
and to see what kind of errors I get?

IB really interest me. this would be a very interesting project and
may be of value to others also?

I'm willing to invest some time and effort into this, should I make
my findings available to others?
