Michael here's the point. Do we have a problem with the *current* BLP process? That's the question on the table. Some people are in a reactionary mode, regarding a *few* issues, and wanting to change major systems, based on a few issues. That is not a productive stance. A more productive stance would be to present , realistically, the problem as a *major* issue. Not the issue of a few exceptions. You should never code *for* the exceptions, only the mode. Otherwise your problem-solving never ends. So far I've seen and heard nothing, that would make me think that the issue on the table, is anything more than a few exceptions. Which should be dealt with as exceptions, and not be made the cause for upheavel. Will Johnson **************Make your life easier with all your friends, email, and favorite sites in one place.
