Bob, I always subscribed to that viewpoint. The odd-numbered versions were
always the best -- with version 8 being the only edxception.

Maybe we should be allowed to order odd numbered releases.

Dear Dave,
Well, I hear you, and you are absolutely correct!
Yes, I skipped Version 10 also, well I mean I threw the unopened CD mailer
into a box on top of my closet!
LOL!
I liked Version 9 fine, and to be honest, I have not had a bit of problems
with Version 11.
Thanks again!
With Best Regards,
