Yes, Uncle Dave does have a "significant" number of, like you,
registered users for his various applications.
My point was that EVERY registered user should benefit equally from
Uncle Dave's product enhancements. Unless you paid - hard cash money -
for Uncle Dave to build you a "one off" version. Re-reading your email
below, it seems to me that you indicate your in the same class as
other "registered" users of Uncle Dave's various applications. Not an
OEM user of a specialty version application which Uncle Dave has built
for volume purchase clients.
