Hi Catherine,
Oh if only we could grant you your wish! But there are many
things in the way. Last year, Windows XP. This year,
Office 2003, and a successor to Windows XP in 2004. And if
Duxbury wasn't up to the latest, they'd be dead in the water
overnight!
I'll spare the politics on how agencies and such like decide
on new operating systems. I'm sure yours are as bad as ours
here in the U.K. I'm just now talking to one local
government group who are going from Windows 95 to Windows XP
in one step. That's three missed operating systems in the
middle.
I'd better go hide inside my soap box, or I might just say
something about public services and government management
that would upset a lot of people.
But don't give up hope just yet, Catherine.
George Bell.

I have onlyone suggestion for dbt 10.5. It's the idea that
it containenough thought and enough user definable features
that there won't be a need for a dbt 10.6 for at least three
years. Individuals cannot afford continuous upgrades and
agencies, in pite of tthe popular myth, can't either.
Hoping for the best and expecting the worst, Catherine
