Hello Tony
I can't help you, but I see Steve Bowman has replied.
All I want to say is that as long as it has to do with the Amiga, or the
Amiga community, ANYTHING an ADUG Member posts on the adug-members ML is
OK.
NOTHING on those lines is OT.
After all, that's what ADUG's all about.
To help it's Members, which means helping the
Amiga community.
Hope you get it sorted out, Tony.
Basil
