Hi Jeanne

Thanks for that. I now know that I can proceed with this in revolution.

I know I am being a bit thick here but I hope I have this correct. Would I 
create an exe that had a blank canvas (see top image in 
http://www.gla.ac.uk/~rh82p/ide.jpg) with buttons to create fields.

This could not alter the "IDE.exe" but could save the added fields like a 
template file. Then the user could enter data into the template file and 
save the data as a text fiel or xml etc etc etc. Am I correct?

Thanks for the help, not used runrev for a long time.,

Bob
