Howdy, Jim, and thanks for the reply.

Too true, Jim, and we are well aware of this fact, unfortunately :^). Seriously,
ever little change we do is run through the mill, out back past the water wheel,
and back for another trip or ten. Also, the guys here in the office are very
familiar with the user interface and have used the code extensively in the
field. If it gets past the 3 dudes here in the office, then it's probably
going to be an obscure bug or something.

Well, we've faced that music, Jim, long ago, which is what lead up to
the topic of this thread :^).
