From: Marian Henna on
I want to thank everyone (including Tim Williams - even tho I was a little
offended by his comment), for all the help and pointers.

Once I chose to follow the advice here and inform the powers that be that
there should be no impact to any clients, I made an ASP page, included our
function file and voila all is as we need it to be.

I appreciate that this is a "Free Forum" and you all give your time and
advice freely and willingly.

It's refreshing to see that this sort of collaboration and sharing of
knowledge is still out there.

Keep up the great work everyone.

Again, many thanks.

Marian :)
