Interesting, Ricardo. Today in my one to one, we were dis ussing the fact the VO often doesn't give any indication that it's doing what you've asked it to do. I know in that other unmentionable system, it's an option one can turn on and off by the degree of verbosity. But I don't recall whether I was getting complete feedback when the mbp was set to high verbosity.
Something else to explore.:) Thanks Carolyn Haas On Dec 17, 2010, at 4:43 PM, Ricardo Walker wrote: > Hi Geoff, > > What Benjamin said, seems to be accurate in my case.
