That should get you what you want.

Thanks, David, but I'm seeing something else.

None of this (normal in W98) stuff comes up. The next screen is a MS Network Connection wizard, I select dialup to internet, the only choices after that are MS options, I do not see what you describe in W2K, I have SP4 if that relates to this (I doubt it). It never gives me a chance to enter my ISP.

That led to my copying my W98 connectoid so I can write this reply.

Comment?

TIA
