Jack,
George has been writing the help. He's done a fabulous job. At the same
time, this means that things are unlikely to be documented until George
understands them (and he does understand this now) and is satisfied that he
won't push for further change (the jury is still out in that regard).
Once George is happy with his understanding and our implementation then
things like this are sure to be documented.

Can we documentthis, in help. It may seem strange, but it makes a kind of
sense after you repeat the exercise. My guess is that unless DBT is
networked, most of us probably wouldn't have more than two anyway. Are
printers mutually exclusive, and can you make DBT think a embosser is a
printer, or vise vers, based on port settings.
