Ahh yes, but I also need to use the part that uses that primitive, and if LEdit won't load the primitive, then I can't use the part. Has noone ever used the \48\*.dat primitives? I count three in my directory, and if the policy is not to create them before they are needed, someone must have used them, I just can't find the parts that do:( I have heard something about inlining (?!?) could that be the solution to using them? In that case, they can hardly be called primitives can they? I apologize for being somewhat unclear on this. Sincerely John Jensen. > > Fredrik
