I only learned enough C to make the old control system work and that was extremely straightforward but this object oriented stuff for the new system is just hard for an old school VB programmer. I spend all my time fighting nomenclature because I don't understand it instead of programming good stuff.

Anyway, the program compiled with the changes above but I'll have to wait till tonight to see if I'll get the good old crash of death. Thanks again, I owe you a drink of your choice somehow. :-)
