That was on the Migrating to 6.00 training course where the lecturer (who shall remain nameless, because it wasn't their fault) failed miserably to get the restore to work at all! I haven't touched OnArchive since then, not even in 7.2x. Cheers, -- Mark. +------------------------------------------------------------------+ |Mark D.
