   ster and DC[/url]:[/i]The patents describe a method by which a program can "ask for help" from another application to carry out certain computer-oriented functions. That's generally similar to the way Java operates, according to Kodak and other experts.[/quote]But doesn't that include any JIT (Just In Time) software, if not all software?Nice find Phantasm! :)

   You could always study .NET :=).Just kidding, as I know you guys like a little comedy. I'm sure you already know what I think about Java vs .NET, and just look at the way Java is becoming more like .NET with every new release. Enough said....Hey Bill, I did what you said...where's that money you promised...:D
