FINALLY Windows NT/call me XP - is somewhat "finished". Somewhat. -drl

'Internet Settings' one for Work (with default selection ...) 'Work Settings' and third says My network card connects to (with default ...) 'Work' Because I am going through a Wi-Fi router connected to an adsl modem, I assumed I left it as Work but no - I needed to select Internet & off it goes. It only took 10 mins to figure out this time so things must be improving (I am learning something about Win2002 network settings). Cheers Doug (next time I buy a Win PDA I'll make sure it is ... 1) actually running Win2003 2) has a Wi-Fi built in and already configured by the manufacturer )
