I feel ashamed!!!!!!  )-[
My stupidity is increased by my blindeness it seems. {:-}
I got it right now. The Dome dll was in the wrong folder (unzipping caused
also a recursing of the original Gibone folders as well). Now it works of
course!
About my second question, I really don't see how I could have missed that one!


Thank you very much indeed, Lutz, for taking time to help me out. I really
appreciate it!
