green granite,
No problem, glad to have (eventually) been of assistance !
The Sysinternals set of programs are actually quite nifty and do all sorts of neat stuff, even if some are easier to grasp than others.
Must also compliment Microsoft (some might say a rare thing !) on keeping the Sysinternals toolset free for all ..... (Sysinternals used to be a seperate company until gobbled up by Microsoft at some point in recent history).

Indeed, I use their process explorer a lot, never thought to look to see if they had something that might have helped.
