I didn't actually ask a question, and I don't mind that you don't have
the answer. What I do mind is that you interpreted my statement of
frustration as a question, and provided a completely irrelevant answer.
You don't need to read minds to understand this, just English.
If you take a step back and go through and read the entire thread again
from the start, though, I think you will understand my frustration.
Evren asked a question which everybody else is doing their best not to
answer in as many words as possible; and when I try to answer, I find
out that Evren doesn't really know what the question is.
This is where - in an ideal world - somebody at R1Soft would jump in and
start asking the right questions...
