Good thoughts! I had forgotten for a 'second' about the problem of releasing new software, and maintaining compatibility with previous versions! Just a 'mind' slip, I'm better now! I can remember writing new programs and it seems that sometimes it was tougher to convert the 'old' data to be used in the 'new' format than the 'concept' of the new program.

Even in the 'good old days', I see that you were forced to a new system by developing technology and management making a decision based on cost or availability. 'Been there, Done that, Got the HAT, Got the Shirt and Got the SHAFT'

Keep goin'
