Thank you for your succinct and well-thought reply. I am in agreement
with you 100 percent! It is indeed simply a marketing-mentality issue
I'm attempting to address. My apologies to yourself and others for not
making myself clearer. I was hoping that a change in version would not
have had the huge impact on binary or backward compatibility as I now
know is the case. Perhaps I was simply looking for the easy answers
and simple solutions. I now realize that it will take a little more
persuasion and evangelism(sp) on my part! Again, thank you!
