I figured you would be back <g>. On the "sticking" on transforming objects – 3ds is doing heavy polling of the keyboard during this phase. OS/2 sees this as the program not doing anything useful, and reduces the priority of the task. To get around this, you need to go into dos settings and increase your idle sensitivity. This will prevent 3ds from going to sleep. Unfortunately, it makes your foreground task go a lot slower, even when the background session isn't rendering. On sharing the dongle – right click on your printer icon, select settings, select the output tab, right click on lpt1, select settings, turn on "share access". No problem <g>. LAM
