To get into customizing BBX, you're going to need to know the basics of ARexx. There is no way around that – but once you do know a bit of Rexx, you can do a lot with it. The problem with integrating the messages into the BBX message area, is that the BBX message area has the standard fields – From, To, About, etc… whereas Usenet's headers can be any size. I don't think throwing the usenet stuff in with the local stuff is appropriate, because they are very different things. I suppose you could write some rexx code to do it anyway if you wanted to though. …Steve
