Guys, I hate to tell you this, but you've got the command arguments in the wrong order (which is part of the reason that Gary could not find the command in the manual). It's not who Ruschmeyer owes money but who owes Ruschmeyer money It turns out that the entire net owes me money! Being the nice guy that I am, I was going to let it slide- that was until you guys at John Fluke Mfg. *had* to bring it out into the open. As you may have already noticed, the payment date has already passed for much of this money. I am a reasonalbe man, however, so I will not ask for any interest. To stop any further action on my part, however, I either want my money or the equivalent value in John Fluke's (no David Letterman's, please). -- Name: John Ruschmeyer US Mail: Monmouth College, W.
