I've outlined several times in this group how such a program
could be written as an object, and I've even tested and
confirmed my theory in a program for a client, but no one
has taken the bait and taken on the job of writing it up for
the newsgroup. Surely someone out there has a strong desire
to be rich and famous.
Oh, well...right, famous, anyway. You aren't going to get
rich giving software away. :-)

Too easy. They know if they provide this kind of functionality
IDL programmers would get totally bored and start learning
C++ just to have something to do. *Then* where would they be?
Cheers,
David
P.S. Let's just say that if everyone who wanted a program
like this was willing to pay me $15 for it, I'd write the
darn thing myself over the weekend. :-)
