Thanks for the reply. I tried your suggestion, but still no joy! I should
have mentioned I'm using SuSE Linux and not Mono on Microsoft Windows.
What I was trying to do was convert the C# TinyGecko example into a Mono
Basic TinyGecko example.
The problem comes in compiling the code, where the C# example you would just
use "mcs GeckoTest.cs -pkg:gtk-sharp-2.0 -pkg:gecko-sharp-2.0', and your
done, but the MonoBasic Compiler which has changed to "vbnc" is just giving
me fits!!! I've tried just about every combination I can think of, from
using the "/r:$MONODIR" switch to the "-libpath" directive, now I'm just
lost as to what to do. I even tried the other suggestion above with a simple
"vbnc Voyager1.vb" (again-- No Joy!).

Could one of you copy this code and see if you can get it to compile,
because if you can then I need to retrace my install path, and possibly
delete then re-install MonoBasic!

Again Thanks for your help!!=)
