Okay. Well, could probably get used to that behavior as well.

The negation of -6 is 6, not some approximation. Somebody at Revolution really needs to respond to this, but I don't know how active they are on this list. I would really like to have more confidence in the underlying math that Revolution is performing, and this does not help. Is there any formal way to report "Bugs" to Revolution? _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
