The point was that no matter what he tells his boss, he will get it shot down. But he can certainly try. Usually what happens with these kinds of discussions is someone will post something similar to what our original poster said, everyone will replay with lots of well-meaning suggestions, the OP will then get lit up and go back to his boss or whoever is being obstructive, and get shot down again. And most times we never hear from the OP again with a followup. Ted
