What is if there is any secret to getting this to come out ? While pushing in on the table top, I sprayed a little WD-40 using the thin straw-like nozzle as near to the latch as possible. After it popped open with repeated pushes I realized that there had been some gunk built up in the latch. After cleaning and lubricating....no problems for four or five years now. Can't let this be...someone wrote (not cjruss@GIS.NET): > then i just put my fingers behind there on the right bottom and pulled like > hell, pulled the screws right outta the back of the table. For me, reacting with brute force more often has created bigger problems than just thinking about the problem and then acting. >then i threw that @#$%& latch piece into the creek and put big velcro tabs on >there. Really glad the velcro works; really SAD that anybody (especially on this list) would stoop to littering our waterways because of a fit of rage. Just my humble opinion. No flame intended. -- Stephen Steele Chillicothe OH '91 Caravelle Hans '84 Westfalia Fritz or Sunny?
