LOL- Thanks for the good news.. I just upgraded to agent 8...
First thing I did was turn off the 'mega-join' option. Maybe I just
don't understand it but it really seemed to be masking a lot of things
and I found it confusing. (not to mention the the reason for
upgrading, a crashing problem with 7.2, wasn't fixed)
FUN STUFF! - but life goes on..
