Mark,

Yes, as you suspect, the IDL-IDL Bridge is of no real use in VM mode.
If execute was enabled it would be trivial to construct a simple IDL
command line, which would allow for "free" IDL command line operations.
This is the same reason the standard execute routine is disabled in VM
mode also.

Thanks for the comment on the email address. While not my first choice
(I normally lurk around the web as codepilot), codepod is a fun 2nd
choice.

Cheers,
