Julie is out until 1 April.
Kevin Millar is the developer. He might tell us which versions he's tested
against.

Well that's good news. I'd still like to get the OPC interface working

assume the new foxbais would work at older I/A release levels with aim API
installed. Do you know if that is the case?

David
