Many thanks again but all reference I saw said full file paths are not needed when all files reside in the same folder/location. this is quite importsnt as I am atmepting to solve this problem for an non_IT proficient company who will be moving folders etc around all the time. Will/shoud it work without full path where both are in the same folder? Also, is file extension necessary? Finally, that it works without file extension.. is that justa hit and miss/garce of the Gods scenario??

Many thanks sir .. you are grrrrr---8!
