My understanding is the Prentice Hall shipped as 1.5 what we know here as 1.5.10, so you would not want to upgrade if what you have is 1.5 from PH until 1.6 (or whatever the successor version eventually will be known as) becomes available here. If this is not correct, someone please post the facts, as PH 1.5 is what I have. >Douglas Pokorny >(drp@buhub.bradley.edu) Poor fellow, Peoria is such a blight (my home town for my first 18 years). <> The best way to have a good idea is to have lots of <> ideas. -- Linus Pauling -- Jess Anderson <> Madison Academic Computing Center <> University of Wisconsin Internet: anderson@macc.wisc.edu <-best, UUCP:{}!uwvax!macc.wisc.edu!anderson NeXTmail w/attachments: anderson@yak.macc.wisc.edu Bitnet: anderson@wiscmacc Room 3130 <> 1210 West Dayton Street / Madison WI 53706 <> Phone 608/262-5888
