The last time I had or used VB was 1997.  I'd have to dig it up (VB 4 was what I
used but I think I bought a copy Visual Studio 5 but never used it), install it,
see if it works under my current OS (WinXP), re-learn how to do simple things
with it, etc.

I might do this if nobody points me to an existing tool AND if nobody else who's
already set up with a current VB wants to knock this off in the meantime.
