This is why I'm so careful to write them down accurately in my notebook, which is at home. (I have some stuff typed into a text file on my laptop, but it's easier to drag out a notebook and jot something down then to wait 30 seconds for my dell monstrosity's bios to boot up, open a window, cd to the approprite directory, edit a text file, then shut everything down again. I should probably get a palm pilot one of these days... Rob
