As per your suggestion aj I have posted this to the PEDA forum as well. My reason for posting to the OT forum was to try and keep the s/n ratio of the PEDA forum down.
I will send an email to Protel asking about this. Tom.

It's a shame you didn't send this to the group at-large, since I have a feeling that the readership of this list is much more limited than that of the full group. Well said, and worthy of open discussion. I can't say with any authority, but my guess is that Protel will NOT be selling partials anymore, as they did in years past. There is no mention on the site of partial licenses (as there was in the past) The only thing that leaves me with a sense that it might be possible is that each of the various primary servers still (as of P99SE0 requires separate unlocking codes... Best bet? Call Protel and ask. aj * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * To post a message: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] * * To leave this list visit: * http://www.techservinc.com/protelusers/leave.html * * Contact the list manager: * mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] * * Forum Guidelines Rules: * http://www.techservinc.com/protelusers/forumrules.html * * Browse or Search previous postings: * http://www.mail-archive.com/proteledaforum@techservinc.com * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
