Interesting, I am not sure what 'kneecapped' is, but I suppose your engines are slowed down by getting a discount on price or something? When that happens we don't do the same for the specialty processors? Sorry if that is a dumb question :-) Cheers, TomR >> COBOL is the Language of the Future! << ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
