I don't understand that either, it looks like the wheel is being
reinvented every 3 months, when they hire a new trainee. 

The chaos in the internet world is a great contrast with the mainframe
world where I grew up in. This week I downloaded the latest
documentation CD from BCM and saw they made a mess of it again. The CD
contains a start-up PDF that launches the access to the entire CD, a
nice idea. We copy the CD contents to our LAN and publish the launching
application to our users. I complained many years ago that they changed
the name of the launching PDF and I had to redistribute a new link each
time and indeed they promised that the PDF would be called LAUNCH.PDF
from then on. But not very much to my surprise the latest launcher is
called "launch_66517.htm". This is not the kind of work that I am
waiting for when installing a new Mainview release!

Kees.
