Valerie, The attached message from Mike applies to all of us. While it may see like no-one is answering your e-mail after a working day, do remember that those on this list in the UK or Ireland are 11 hours behind you in Sydney, while those in USA are between 15 and 18 hours behind.
Given the difficulties you have expressed here at various times regarding accessing the internet, a bit of patience on your part would help. Your first e-mail was sent at 12:15 your time, which is 1:15 AM (i.e., in the middle of the night) in UK where Ron lives. You sent your second e-mail, wondering why you didn't get a reply to your first, at 20:45 (which is 10:45 in the morning here). These times don't even take into account the delay in sending the e-mail half-way around the world. So while you were sitting all afternoon and evening waiting for a response, those of us on this side of the world were (hopefully) sleeping for most of that time, getting breakfast, going to work, or whatever else it is people do, and not necessarily thinking "I wonder if there's an e-mail on the LUG waiting for a reply". You can no doubt see why it would seem as impatience on your part by someone on this side of the globe. We all need to have patience, and try and treat others with some courtesy, taking account of the differences we all have, whether they are differences of time, location, technoligical know-how, knowledge of the Legacy software, Etc., Etc.
