You are right - there looks to be a bug there. But I have not worked on Ver 2 for a few years and don't think I'll be going back to this. But there is a work around. You can change sources, though you can't remove them. So what you could do is add a new source - call it "Delete Me". Then change the source to this one for all sources you want removed. Then go to the Soruce List and delete this source record. Ira ------------------------------------------------ Mr. Ira J.
