Oh... I was assuming when you said you were doing stuff on NT that is was
not using PHP.  My mistake.  I was assuming Access.

As for Zend 1.1  I tried it and it runs like crap.  I mentioned in a
previous email that it took one minet and 20 seconds just to open the app
(on a 500 MHz computer).  The rest of the performance was so bad that I
didn't even get to try functionality.  I closed it and uninstalled.
