Hey sorry, struggling with the website. I think i overdid it abit codwise. With bind to a variable i mean to have the copied file "xmloutputfile" assigned to a variable to have it available for me to use in other subs.	[reply]

With bind to a variable i mean to have the copied file "xmloutputfile" assigned to a variable to have it available for me to use in other subs. What do you mean by file? File name (file path)? File handle? File contents?
