So, FOPEN, FREAD, COMPARE the result againstã_USERON.ALIAS (a global variable), FWRITE to add it to the file. That's theãbasics anyway.

Theãbigist problem I had was trying to figure out how to open the file so I couldãcompare it to the _USERON.ALIAS. yes, echicken helped me very much, and now Iãthink I have enough to incorporate it into my script I've been updating throughãthe years. Everytime I think I've mastered baja, something like this comesãalong and I get humbled very quick :) If it wasn't for you, echicken, nightfox,ãand mro, I'd never get anything in baja or js fixed. You guys have always comeãthrough for me when I need help, and I really appreciate it. ããSysOp: C.G.
