Please don't quote me out of context :) I was referring to what he said a bit later in the paragraph, immediately after the "Besides,": "I'm not the author and I don't know everything in the program, so I copied the description from its web." I know you don't need to know everything about a program to write a description :) But if he was unable to write a description (broken English or not, whatever) without copying from the web site, there is a SERIOUS issue here. If it was just laziness, though, nevermind :) (Seriously. If that's all it was, it's much less of a deal ;) -- ________________________________________________________________________ \ David B.
