Thanks Ted - but to tell you the truth I am not so clear about it now that I
think on it.. and will find out more on Monday.

I thought what they wanted was an Explorer like interface that would allow
them to browse files on the company network and then have them open in the
browser window in the adjacent frame.

They could always just use the File Open browse - but I think they were
looking for something fancier.

Too bad the View Explorer didn't allow the user to browse the network - it
would have been perfect.

Have a good weekend!  It's snowing in Toronto.. RATS!

Susan:

Maybe I'm totally misunderstanding you here. But if your client is using
IE-4 or 5 they can go to VIEW > EXPLORER BAR and click on FOLDERS.

Internet Explorer will morph into exactly what you describe. No action is
needed on your part.

Hope that's what you meant.
Best wishes
