I checked the guide binaries and nothing seems to exist. I hadn't even been aware of the gxv_merge until your posting, but something similar for gxv++ users sure would be nice (hint, hint). 8-) --Brett. ============================================================| Brett B.

It's on by default, you can defeat it with the -n flag. > I hadn't even been aware of the gxv_merge.... It was completed after the SQA cycle, rather than delay the release we included it as "demo quality", it was only documented in the RTF. Devguide 3.0 will be entering Beta testing next month. -- Robert Watson 1-40 watson@Eng.Sun.COM Sun Microsystems Inc. +1 415-336-2972 Mountain View, CA. 94043
