Please ignore this.
I always have problems with these types of emails. For example, if I
ignore it, I have in actual fact followed the instructions to the
letter and in doing so, cannot possibly have ignored it!
I once had an "argument" with a college lecturer who handed out an
"exam" paper with 20 questions. You know the one, where you are
supposed to read all the questions before starting.
Questions 1 - 19 were all decent enough and testing questions,
question 20 simply stated "do questions 1 to 5 only".
My argument was that in doing so, we have actually carried out 1 to 5
AND 20 which meant that we should have failed! Eventually, I wore him
down and he agreed that I was correct.
Sometimes, I wonder if my mother and father were married at the time
of my conception! ;-)
Cheers,
Norm.
Quite right Norman, question 5 should have ended with a GOTO 20
All the best - Bill
