Who knows? It is likely on some check list somewhere. Many auditors, the poor kind, love those don't-have-to-think-about-it check lists! I once got a request from an auditor along the lines of: "List all possible exists in all software for which you are responsible and what they could be used for." I pointed him to about 30 different manuals and said something like: "You really should use a primary source and not depend on me because I might overlook something." He went away sorrowful for the books contained great riches. -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer HealthMarkets Keeping the Promise of Affordable Coverage Administrative Services Group Information Technology The information contained in this e-mail message may be privileged and/or confidential.
