While in principle I agree with Alex that re-postings should be kept to a minimum, after three weeks waiting for the rest of PC_Write (parts 6 to 9) I think reposting would be acceptable especially since none of the European sites and some American sites don't seem to have received it. If one is fortunate to have alternative methods of getting the posting fine, if not you are dependent on re-postings. If someone at a site doesn't receive a posting and obtains the information via an alternative method, do they always pass that information down stream? Probably not? Still waiting for PC_Write C parts 6 - 9. Ian Stewartson Data Logic Ltd, Queens House, Greenhill Way, Harrow, Middlesex, HA1 1YR, UK.
