The bat file thing is fixed.
I used a delete that gave feedback - shouldn't have.

The connections dbf from this version on will no longer be replaced with
the install. The config file is never touched, even on uninstall. I
can't remember what I did on the previous version because that was over
12 months ago. I could in fact move the connections DBF to the config
file area but that would mean wiping it one more time <g>.

My hope is that there will be very few new versions!

Fixed that - V2.2.5 is ready to download or update

I can't recreate this although the Split Window control, as much
improved as it is by Sven Ebert, is still structurally flawed. It has
all sorts of refresh issues and I've spent fruitless days trying to get
the messaging right. It sucks. But it stays. I could do a far better job
in C# but that would defeat the purpose of the exercise <g>.

Thanks Geoff,

When I get a chance I'll try SQL Master on another pc and see if I get
the same thing. I'll let you know if I find anything of use.
