Yes, but it looks as though he's been asked in the past and has claimed that "it needed tidying up": that was a couple of years ago. However we're not at all inclined to let him off the hook, since we take very little pleasure in having to dig out a Windows system to run one poxy program... even if it does save us £1000 at a main dealer.
And being able to demonstrate that his VB code could could be made portable without a great deal of work would, I think, be in everybody's interest.
