Agreed, but my point was that it's not necessarily -your- policy (or your management's policy) that they're reporting on.

Unfortunately, some times policies are set by external organizations, and your management has less control in that case. -- Walt ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
