In the case of ANPM, we create/update the program folder and content. Can such things be accomplished through normal means if PMSHELL.EXE isn't even running? I suspect not. WarpIN itself (via wic.exe) can operate fully independently of the WPS, but of course, was WarpIN is a GUI app, that wouldn't work, so a self-extracting WPI would likely not fare well. Interesting conundrum, but again, not anything for ANPM to address, and I have a sneaking suspicion that Paul R would not be of a mind to spend a lot of time contemplating this one (just an off-the-cuff guess). :-) -- Lewis ------------------------------------------------------------- Lewis G Rosenthal, CNA, CLP, CLE, CWTS, EA Rosenthal & Rosenthal, LLC www.2rosenthals.com visit my IT blog www.2rosenthals.net/wordpress -------------------------------------------------------------
