Hello Gary, If the box saves fine and doesn't generate big red error messages, the box should be okay. Make sure that when you refer to the box on the cron page, you've checked "Is a box". If it isn't checked, the cron job will not be able to find the program it needs to run. If you still can't get it, we can always check the log files and see if we can figure out what is going on. -- Cory R. King Vice President - XLAN, Inc.
