I can't see some of the big U$ $oftware companies doing that --- but perhaps things are looking up. As for the product, my initial impression is rather favorable, but as I'm running 5.1 and waiting for Java, I can't compare it to OO. However, if it comes in as handy as I think it may, and my accounting department can pay my salary for October, you may have at least one customer in 29 days or so. Thank you, Kevin Kinsey DaleCo, S.P.
