Whew! That took almost as long to download the whole thing as Acrobat Reader takes to load! Thanks for the link... I'm sure glad I got those extra hard drives, though. "If it's Snowbird season, why can't we shoot them?" - Overheard in a bar in Bullhead City

It sure does. I certainly felt like doing exactly that to my Sony laptop when I saw that message... :rolleyes: Anna :rose: Riverblade Ltd - Software Consultancy Services Anna's Place | Tears and Laughter "Be yourself - not what others think you should be" - Marcia Graesch "Anna's just a sexy-looking lesbian tart" - A friend, trying to wind me up.

For BASIC you need to set a REALM (domain) with which to authentication. You also need to specify that BASIC authentication should be used by using the CredentialCache and assigning that to _admin_.Credentials: NetworkCredential cred = new NetworkCredential(username, password, domain); CredentialCache cache = new CredentialCache(); cache.Add(new Uri(url), "Basic", cred); // ... admin.Credentials = cache; This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.

I have used Opera for several years, I will swop to Firefox sometime, but not yet. As you said Firefox now nearly has all the features of Opera, which Opera has had for years. As the saying goes if it aint broke don't fix it. I used to use IE for CP, I now use Firefox, only rarely do I find a site that Firefox won't render. I remmeber the days of incompatible PCs, the net is great as it is 'standard' it would be nice if websites were not designed for a single browser, I am not knocking CP about this. Perhaps when/if Firefox gets to 50% that may happen, but I am sure the bean counters will try and prevent that! "Nothing is impossible for the man who doesn't have to do it himself." - A. H. Weiler

yes, it seems to have been broken for a couple of days, which makes our CP screen savers not so nice. :( Chris polled the other day whether anyone wanted to Lounge as an RSS feed and I mentioned I use this latest.asmx webservice like a news feed for the Lounge. I wonder if its just a coincidence that now it is shut down.

I was thinking about the number of articles you have to write. If you can write 25 articles about things that are not covered yet in CP then you must really know something. "One of the Georges," said Psmith, "I forget which, once said that a certain number of hours' sleep a day--I cannot recall for the moment how many--made a man something, which for the time being has slipped my memory."

Thanks. The ATL stuff looks cool - I'll give it a try. I tried adding a web reference into a unmanaged C++ app and Visual Studio gave me loads of "Internal Error" messages boxes and seemed to break my project. Have you ever seen that one? I'm trying to access an Apache Axis (Java) web service btw. Ta, Dave.

The best I have seen was at University. The University's directly connected to the backbone, so downloads flew. :eek:

I've looked at them and that info doesn't seem to be available. Any other ideas? Ta, Dave.

Cheers, I'll have a look. Dave.

Thanks for the pointer...:)

Cheers. Dave.:cool:
