JIm,
The world is full of morons anymore. This is why
any tech support is so hard to reach. This is to weed out
the real problems from the morons wasting the co. time.
We have this problem on a regular basis. I get frustrated
with getting thru this "front line" all the time, with some
of the CAD software we use. I think this problem all
started when it became so easy to pick up the phone
and call someone, years ago. The world needed people
who can think, not memorize how to spell....
A famous quote from Heny Ford, or something to that effect.
