Thanks Mist

how about the other queries in the installation file as below:

INSERT INTO setting (settingid,settinggroupid,title,varname,value,description,optioncode,displayorder) VALUES (NULL,40,'Display Staff Messages','displaystaffmessages','1','Do you wish the message to be displayed to all staff to be displayed on all pages?','yesno','1');
INSERT INTO setting (settingid,settinggroupid,title,varname,value,description,optioncode,displayorder) VALUES (NULL,40,'Staff Usergroups','staffusergroups','5,6,7','Enter the usergroup id\'s of your staff in here. (Seperate with commas WITH NO SPACES!)','','2');
INSERT INTO setting (settingid,settinggroupid,title,varname,value,description,optioncode,displayorder) VALUES (NULL,40,'Message','themessage','','Here you put the message that you want to be displayed on all pages to your staff.<br>(You may use html as as &lt;br&gt tags are needed to go to a new line','textarea','3');

The hack seems to work right but I have one problem. Does anyone know how I get the header to not show if there is no message?

Please try not to attach bmp's as they're such high quality that they take us 56k'ers an age to download

Any chance you could attach it as a gif of jpg?

Thanks
