I strongly recommend that anyone using DriveSpace also get the Microsoft Plus Pak. It includes drivespace3, which gives you a lot more control over your compression. It helped my speed a lot, I use standard compression as a default (fast, not much compression), and have a job scheduled to compress files that haven't been used in a week with a much tighter compression. The job runs at night, using the "system agent" (cheesy name, good util) which also comes with the plus pak. ____________________________________________________________________ jesse montrose <jesse@spine.com> http://www.hooked.net/bin/jesse.home After seven years, I was sent home to my family.
