C47 reminds me of SAP: a hell of a mighty system but featuring a hell squared number of flags and buttons. :shock: Can't help it.

Nigel, thanks very much for this. It looks like it will be straightforward enough to incorporate into the C47.

Re: WP43: How to Keep a Promise? (Poll!)

Walter, what has happened to you?
