In fact, I noted this change in their direction several months ago, and I think I even wrote about my observations here on the talk list.Their tech support is practically zero in terms of timeliness, frequency and value. Every time they have announced something recently, it has not been a new feature or bug fix we asked for. Instead it is yet another website they just finished building for of their new hosting customers (which might have been one of OUR customers instead) ... or yet another product or program designed to funnel more development and hosting business their way.After the introduction of WebCatalog Builder, and now that 'affiliate' program they just came out with, I cannot help wondering what's next?================================ Kenneth Grome, WebDNA Consultant 808-737-6499, http://webdna.net ================================------------------------------------------------------------- Brought to you by CommuniGate Pro - The Buzz Word Compliant Messaging Server.
