Mike,
I realised the "final" release wasn't available yet but didn't know the URL I'd been given on alt.comp.freeware was incorrect. Unfortunately, Microsoft have not replied to my request concerning the beta (sent a request a few weeks ago) and I'm not an MSDN subscriber (mainly because I can't afford it gg). -- Regards Steven Burn Ur I.T.

You should avoid links that are supplied to you via third party sites that
are trying to circumvent the proper controlled processes to access to our software. You never know what you are actually getting is what you expect and you certainly will get no support for a product or patch that has not yet been released and you are not on one of the formal release programs for. If you have not heard back by now you may not be on the beta program but we do add candidates as we widen the scope of the releases so you may still be included later. If so you will be notified by e-mail. -- Regards, Mike -- Mike Brannigan [Microsoft] This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights Please note I cannot respond to e-mailed questions, please use these newsgroups "Steven Burn" wrote in message ...
