Follow the rules please :-) Group: Patrons Posts: 6780 Joined: 14-November 03 From: Bangalore, India Member No.: 9470	here's a working sample, made for my preferences, shared here for those who might have been having problems with their XML, & so would like to take a look at a confirmed-working sample for reference. After making use of this xml, all you need is your logic. Once i finished making it, i tried to avoid the WSIM (from WAIK) as much as possible, since WSIM needs .NET 2.0 & is complex & crashy. Attempted to include as many commonly-used options as possible, with quite a few being setup as default, but the settings are still exposed here so that you can change it to your liking. I've provided a lot of entry points to run custom setups, etc. This is for Vista Ultimate - the other editions are subsets of it, so you just need to strip out relevant parts, if you're using Vista Business/HomePremium/etc. note - i've supplied "REMOVED" as the key, you need to replace it with your own. note2 - updated to remove superfluous tags CODE <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
