Someone ELSE at my company had bought something a year ago, our software had just arrived when we tried installing it. My point is that the fact that someone at a company has purchased a product from a vendor in the past is not a valid reason to refuse to provide support for a new purchase of the same product. ISC's position appears to be to refuse to provide support not only for additional purchases of the same product, but even purchase of a different product! ---- Larry Jones UUCP: uunet!sdrc!scjones SDRC scjones@SDRC.UU.NET 2000 Eastman Dr. BIX: ltl Milford, OH 45150-2789 AT&T: (513) 576-2070 "This probably just goes to show something, but I sure don't know what." -Calvin
