Lemme get this straight. You are trying to access and run Windows

While what you said is strictly true, that is an incorrect way to phrase
it because that's not what's happening here.

Thanks for the info. I've never heard of Citrix and from the OP's post I
got the (obviously mistaken) idea that it was some form of remote desktop.
Mia Culpa.



But *that* thinking is correct: It is a sort of remote desktop -- the apps
execute on the server. By the way, it looks and acts an awful lot like
Microsoft's Remote Desktop Connection application, except with RDC, it's
really a desktop, in that you get a true Windows desktop on your Mac. In
Citrix, it's the app and only the app.
