Thank you Jack. It certainly does help, and indeed it was good to make
up this morning, knowing that I was still sane, and had not been having
a bad dream.
I made a very bad job of explaining it to Peter, hence why I went into
such detailed steps to the list.
Thank you again for taking the trouble to go through it.
George.

Hi George:
I tried setting up and removing some embossers to gage where the Blazer
would be on the list. I was not allowed to remove any. When I changed
the top margi from 0 to 2, I received the message
Paraphrase: Dbt had made the appropriate adjustments, which would
profoundly effect any further embossing. Hiowever when I went in again,
it was zero as your prediction.
With 12 inch paper, values you stated in effect, DBT verified the values
had been excepted, but in its wisdom changed the top margin to one.
Would you like me to try this in the old dbt for dos.
Apart from a more elaborate confirmation message, I replicated your
results.
Hope this helps
Jack
