I've modified NewPaper so that it asks what should be done with each BMP as that BMP is used the first time, and stores this information in WIN.INI. Having been through all BMPs once, you'll never hear from it again, unless you add a new BMP. If there's some interest, I'll upload it to Cica. -- Roger Hadgraft | hadgraft@civeng.monash.edu.au Lecturer in Civil Engineering | Monash University | phone: +61 3 565 4983 Clayton, Vic. 3168.
