Any manual procedure is prone to error. I prefer to automate things as much as possible, to minimize the possibility of human error. Any time I see a manual process, I wonder how it could be automated. I'm *not* saying that one tool, or even a variety of canned tools, will do the job - the automation could be as simple as a batch file or script that issues the appropriate commands in the correct sequence (with appropriate error checking). -- Jim Hyslop Senior Software Designer Leitch Technology International Inc.
