Hello  Nancy, nice chatting with you. !

        Do not let him know, it might be good and then not.  ;-)))

 NB> Correct, it is mostly a cosmetic thing, just the way the reader

        Yes, 99 was accrued to 100 but a digit was dropped ???

 NB> Richard fixed it so that it would
 NB> at least be a useful year date, so now the above would be 05 Jan108 or
 NB> whatever the appropriate year was.  The date on the message itself
 NB> shows as 05 Jan 08 or however you configure your reader to show the
 NB> date.  :) 

        Still a digit dropped but a non-significant one. Works like a
   charm. Can can tell Richard on my behalf, that I think he is fine.
   I just can not see  ever dropping BW now, maybe if there is another
   bug in year 3000. I might drop first.
     
       
...    In this new year, I promise
...     to fall in love with . . . . Macs !
