Thanks! Exactly what I was going to ask if it could be done! I was just getting ready to ask if there was any way to start ARC with a project loaded.

I love the way the editor can be resized! What are the chances of the other "Control" windows being able to be resized also? Sometimes they are too small and it would be nice to drag them just a little larger. If for no other reason then to be able to read the name at the top I assign to it.

Thanks again! David Schulpius

Excellent, I tried hotkeys but that was not the same as a DJ creation.

Woo hoo.... DJ you are the best.....

Really great job DJ !!! Where should I enter the code for auto load? At a Cmd or in ARC?
