This is an easy question, so I'll answer it. :) Our concept is views <100 are system views, user views are >100. If you had added your view in the aircraft -set file and made its number over 100 you would not have had an error. Since you modified preferences.xml, which, despite the name, is not intended as a preferences file, and added a view to the system set, you have to beat on the system to have it accepted. You could/should have said <view n="100"> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The NEW KODAK i700 Series Scanners deliver under ANY circumstances!
