Thanks. Well, 'cause I figured you guys had made some changes between the end of July and when 2.1 was actually released. Also, I noticed that your upgrade util with 2.1 works with 2.0.5, so I am figuring that subsequent versions of the upgrade option will only be able to upgrade from 2.1. I'm guessing at this point but I figured it would be better to be in sync than not. Correct me if i'm wrong...;-) -- John Cavanaugh "There can be only one."
