Thanks for the suggestion.  I am familiar with the command line options 
for importing registry settings.  However, we are launching Netscape 
from a menuing system that, I suspect, won't permit batch files that 
both handle the regedit command and launch Netscape.   Bill suggested 
something similar, and perhaps it is worth an experiment.  

Anyone know about difficulties caused by modifying the registry man times 
per day?  Does the chance of corruption increase under these conditions?
