Thank you all, I'll try the thing above. I like GNATCOM a lot, but
this is not the case where it's usable. Of course, I could have
written ActiveX in VB and pass it to GNATCOM, but it's a mess indeed.

And if somebody asks why not use just VB if the interface is available
- it doesnt work right all the time, which annoys me.
