If you set up your logon in DOCS correctly, it all should work just 
like when you first used BW.  Instead of reading on line, you should 
get a d/l.  Then you read them in BW.  Your reps will them be sent 
up to DOCS just like you did before.

 JO> Havn't had one since win 3.11 days... :-)

And you still miss it, don;t you!  

 JO> The best place to d/l BW is __________?

A search for Blue Wave on the net should locate it for you.  I'd 
say get BW230.  But, BW386 may work well for you.  (I have personal 
reasons for staying with 2.30)  If you can't find them, send me 
your I net addy and I'll send you copies.  BTW, DOCS may have them 
on hand for d/l.  


 JO> With luck, it's a prior copy of BW

 JO> No lock. Long gone.

Your's not the packrat I am!  I still have BW 2.12 on my system.  

 JO> (Hmmm. I KNEW there'd be a trick to this...:-)

 JO> Work arounds? Involving SOLDER, prob'ly :-)
 
The only one I think you will need is Dale Shipp's BWREPFIX.  It 
took care of a QWK Y2K anomolie that messed up some header fields 
in the message.  

Check with Jean Parrot.  I know he accesses DOCS in a similar fashion.  
He should be able to explain how to d/l and then u/l your replies 
much better than I can.  I've never logged onto DOCS.
