Like me saying sorry production wasn't late it was the graphics dept., so don't be mad at the whole company.Sorry just doesn't work that way.And as for the checkboxes... Coming from someone who has had the software since early early, I do not recall any checkboxes in the old Pacific Coast days... Although my memory is NOT what it used to be so I could be wrong :-( So, here's a thought, why doesn't someone post the url on the SMSI site that allows people to opt out of mailing lists? It does exist right? Or perhaps the email they can send the unsubscribe to? Surely that must exist right?I know, I am getting mean and sarcastic in my old age (must have another Birthday coming soon), but in case they do NOT exist, please let me FORMALLY request that someone at SMSI on this 'developers' list forward this email to someone at SMSI sales requesting a WWW page or email be created and shared with the list allowing them to personally manage whether or not to be solicited electronically.Seems pretty reasonable to me, and a pretty simple way to keep this thread from popping up every time SMSI 'sales' does another mailing. :-) Alex Alex J McCombie New World Media Chief Information Officer Drawer 607 800/724.8973 Fair Haven, NY 13064 Alex@NewWorldMedia.com http://OurClients.comInterface Designer WebDNA Programmer Database Designer------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
