You log a support call, as a developer, and say that trying to rebase your installed app for performance is failing on ME, all ME, and nothing but ME. MS then take a couple hundred dollars off you... and you get a technician that owns the case and will follow it through to conclusion. If you are right, you *may* get your money back. If they find cockpit error... well the problem is solved and you are short $$$. I'll happily contribute 50 AUD to such an effort (but it can't be me calling as I don't have an ME install to play with). Rob
