Hi Tod! Yeh, you got that right! I would rather pdi not tell us how confusing graphical interfaces are, which is not always true, but start opening up Keysoft so that we can run more types of applications and connect to the servers we have instead of having to change to something else. By the way, could you write me offlist so I can be sure to reply to you directly? I have a question for you, and It does not concern the bn. You were on another list that I was also on, and I wanted to ask you something about that product. Thanks
