  Well, I'm looking into a few but most of them are for BBS specific
type files. I have found one little freeware bulletin generator that
does work well for tracking your door usage and I've done a little
work and made it work also as a Top-15 Callers Bulletin.  I'll zip
the file back up and name it stats.zip and make it available for
f'req also.
  I will be looking into others though and If I fine one I can make
to work and looks nice.. I'll let ya know. :)
  Cheers and have a great day!  From the Curmudgeon of MacroNet!
