Hi

As far as I am aware it stores it in a directory called "History". The location varies depending on the OS. In windows 95 it's under the "windows" directory, whilst in windows 2000 there's one for each user id under their local settings directory.

There is a registry setting to tell you where it is stored in W2000 so presumably in other versions too.

Hope this helps. --------------------------------
If it ain't broke, don't fix it!
