Matt & Jeff, Thanks for reminding me of the problems associated with my suggestion. I now believe diagnostic script creation/implementation should be left to each release/branch. >I like the brevity and Richards's changes. Everyone, I agree with Matt's assessment. Ray did a great job, as usual, with the rewrite. With Richard's modifications, I believe we have something that most users will read and use. I thank everyone for their suggestions and comments. :-) Lynn, When you have time, would you commit the new version to cvs?
