Greasyjim,
Thank you for the work around. I will give it a shot.
I tried the suggestion of logging in to Novaworld 2 just prior to
running Pinger. This actually worked, so I am guessing Pinger needs a
cookie set on the system somewhere to work, strange huh? I believe your
solution probably does the same thing but eliminates the need to log
into Novaworld 2 using a browser before hand.
Thanks a bunch and may God bless,
l3ushwacker
