Hi Guys: I copied the MyFile.zip and then pasted it into the message body and the zip file was attached to the message. The recipient got the message and the zip file was intact and he used it without a problem. This is easy enough to remember for an old fat blind guy I guess. I also remember the

Hi Dave: Not yet. I am not even sure if you trade on the site itself or if you have to use the desktop app they provide. It will be some time before I can get to reviewing brokerages since I have started a major programming project to upgrade my trading platform. I might prefer to use a brokerage

Mouse is one of what I think are the underlying problems. It appears WE uses the mouse behind the scenes to monitor dynamic events and I think this causes stability issues. Stop doing this and use another method and have the mouse for client input as it is designed. Rick USA -Original
