As far as geocaching.com's cache pages/logs messing up.. I havent noticed that.. yet. However, in the event I ever had a log 'disappear'.. I can always put it right back, the same way I originally wrote it. On my team web page (not updated yet, but still viewable), I have 'archived' all my logs from all my caches I have been too. I have a local link to it on my web page. So, it doesnt go to gc.com. There is a link to the actual web page and I have a link to a local page on my site with the log. So, all is never lost and I always know what caches I have been to and what I wrote in my logs! It was quite the chore to do though.... I didnt decide to do this until a few months ago and I had over 800 logs to cut and paste!!! :) Scott Team Ropingthewind _________________________________________________________________ Get a FREE online virus check for your PC here, from McAfee. http://clinic.mcafee.com/clinic/ibuy/campaign.asp?cid=3963
