>So it is just coincidence that they are/were both headquartered in Dallas, TX?

I've no idea.

>At one time didn't CommTools offer a competitive upgrade from Silverware with information for a smooth transition?

I don't know if they did or didn't but it used to be usual practice for companies to offer such upgrades to give users incentive to move to there product instead of there competitors or from there competitors.

>BTW, you spelled 'available' wrong. <g> Just joking, thanks for the info...

Guilty as charged. :)
