Maybe Whoa folks! Get your facts straight before calling someone a liar! What he said was that Toolbox Reference vol. 3 isn't available from Addison Wesley. It is a beta draft and no beta drafts are available from Addison-Wesley. On the other hand all of the other manuals are available from them, as far as I know. I've got the Addison-Wesley Toolbox reference volume 1 and 2 that I got off the shelf at a local B. Daltons bookstore (the big white books you were referring to). I got the beta draft of volume 3 from APDA. The poor guy was trying to help and he gets called a liar! Please don't assume someone is lying when they post. Give them the benefit of the doubt and assume that they were in error or, as in this case, that you misunderstood what they meant. Rick Fincher rnf@shumv1.ncsu.edu
