Can you post the search string I should use? I did google which is why I
created the subject I did. So that others that were searching for this type
of answer could find it. I don't know how others have described this
scenario. I get a lot of pages on property sheets for programming controls.
I know that this type of setup was used by Symantec ACT but didn't find
references to that either.

Thanks in advance
