Hi Hakan,

 LH>   Also want to ask if there is a y2k patch for Max 2.02 and squish
 LH> 1.11?  Will that cover the OLR as well?  Am I 
 LH> going to have to upgrade
 LH> to Max3.01 to solve y2k problems?
 HK> Upgrading to Max 3 doesn't solve your y2k problems but 
 HK> it isn't hard to upgrade to Max 3 from 2 at all. I

 HK> years 3 has released, where were you? :) (I was one of 

    I was around, but didn't want to change the current program.  I like
using Mecca.  My system works well.  The only things I would change would
be the ability to have separate control files for the message areas, local,
national & international.  I also want a way to post general messages
to all callers and have not really been able to do that.  

 HK> Max 3 solved some problems I had but it seems that I

  This is the line from my autoexec.bat file and with the current modem, I

BNU /L:2=57600,8N1

   had to use com 3.  It would not work with com2 which I had used before
with my other modem.  I don't have any other things in other com ports as
this is a bare bones DOS - only system.  All the trivia games, etc. are set
to work with the BNU, not internal systems.  When I changed modems and
rechecked all games to make sure the com port matched whereever it was
specified.

   Someone else told me that the flashing F on the status line was flow control
and I have RTS/CTS plus XON set in Max.ctl.
