What are you doing with [writefile] that you cannot do with [sendmail] ?I honestly do not remember which type/creator values *used to be* set by [sendmail] in versions prior to webdna 4.5, but in 4.5 the behavior has changed, and now it writes them as type=TEXT and creator=CWIE -- which on my Mac means they are CodeWarrior files. Nevertheless, SIMS sends them without any problem ...Sincerely, Kenneth Grome--------------------------------------------------- WebDNA Professional Training and Development Center 175 J.
