Thanks a bunch (though i'm yet to try it out). I'd get to you later. On more thing though: I don't know how true but someone once said that the server authenticates the codes it sends to the client by attaching some sort of GUID key to the code so that if as much as a single character should change in the javascript code, the server rejects it. Am trying to do something of that sort. Say I'd have a message of any length then I'd create a key whose length I chose and use it to protect the message (that is why I want the ciphered text to be plain text)... something of that sort. So please if you have any ideas I'd be pleased to hear them. Thank you once more.

Alot of encoding/decoding algorithms produce a ciphered text which contains 'garbage' characters - characters which are neither the regular english alphabets or numbers. I would like an encoding/decoding algorithm which produces a ciphered text which consists of only the regular english alphabets and numbers. Thank you.

I've seen the dll produced by Merrion. As a matter of fact I downloaded the test copy but unfortunately i've been unable to use it. What I ask for if u can help me is how to lay hands on the Winspool.drv documentation. I notice that u guys did not use WMI as a matter of fact u used Winspool.drv and I feel its the way to go. So pls send me a link. Thanks

Thanx Just visited the link u posted. seem to be what I need. I'll keep u informed. Thanx again.

Currently I'm working on a printer monitoring project. The aim of the project is to monitor a printer and be able to tell the # of pages printed by the printer, the user who sent the print job and things of that sort. At the moment am using WMI to achieve this... the problem is the application is too slow and a lot of memory is used... so am wondering it there is anyway I could get a documentation of the class/functions contained in windows winspool driver so that i can use it instead of WMI. Please help me...

What's the difference between the debug version and release version of an application. I have a finished project which i've even created distribution packages - but I compiled a 'Debug version' so i'd like to know if there are any performance issues am unaware of or something. And if I need to compile a release version what am i required to do.

Thanx I can't begin to tell u how grateful i am for the link. I've spent ages trying to lay mee hands on an info like this. Thank you once again. I suppose i'd keep u informed abt mee progress.

How do I access the print spooler. I am not trying to print, all I want to do is monitor the spooler so that I could get informations like: # print sessions it has had, # of pages printed in each session, know if a print was successful or not. I know that all these info, I'd have to programmatically derive at them however this wld be only possible if I'm able to monitor the print spooler. Help. Thanks in advance.
