Yes. Now I wish I could get some sleep. 3AM local and I'm rolling and
tossing, trying to find a comfy position for my arthritic back yet. Had
to get up, and I've heard that a good geek, up in the middle of the
night for whatever reason, is obligated to check his email before going
back to bed. Part of the geek contract I've heard. :) Like you, I'll
stick to it. ;-)
Cheers Lisi, Gene Heskett

:-) Been there, done that, worn the tee shirt. :-( Old age? Fading
eyesight? Well, those are my excuses and I'm sticking to them. ;-) But I don't think we can blame the software
designers for our failing
faculties. ;-)
It would have been a bit more obvious had it been above the right pane of
the little window. Then the mental connection would have been a lot more
automatic. I have done some gui's on older machines that had far fewer
colors available, and there is a huge difference in the perception
of "user friendly" when seemingly tiny details like that are attended
to.
I am fighting
with water in the basement at the same time, and I'll
admit that is distracting. I threw money at it this evening, and
will have to throw some more at it over the next couple days to get
what I brought home installed.
:-( Life. It will intrude. :-(
