Um.  2.01.01 is not a V.3.1 product, but rather a V2.2 product, Sam.

I had a beta test copy of 3.00.00 a long while back, but declined to 
install it since it required WIN/TCP instead of Excelan's socket
implementation.

We've discussed migrating to 3.00.01 now since it's shipping, but the
migratory path is still hampered by our choice of Excelan, which we
made early on.  Also, we have several Ciprico Intelligent controllers
(RF1202 and TM1000) in our machine along with their SVR2 conformant
drivers.

Anyone from Columbia have any ideas on what I will need to do to port
these drivers to Release 3?
