With this IM DA 2.0 problem, it occurred to me that this person had a pretty good idea. I would suggest that anyone expecting to send shareware money to an author in hopes of receiving something in return - try sending a letter first explaining that a shareware 'order' will follow if the author responds. Unless you need 'it' in a hurry, this should save some anger. Now, if the author responds, "Sure, send the check..." and THEN doesn't follow through, roast 'em. john calhoun
