Hi Arthur:

We all have bad days... You are getting morose. Go visit friends and family as there is nothing like a coffee or a few beer...then everything will seem OK again.

In the business you have to realize you can not know everything. If you know one or two products well you are doing well. After that you have to depend on other techs and research. Eventually, if you are really stubborn the solution will come but it usually requires the assembly of a number of piece.

Thanks, all. I already have AutoHotKey loaded and ready to go, but that's
fine for my computer. I don't see how to install this for 1000 users in the
given corp/org. I am growing too old for this profession. Alack and alas.
Goodbye my friends. I'm too old and too forgetful for this profession any
more. I shall still maintain my membership in this beloved group, but
methinks that my contributions will grow more infrequent. Unlike such
stalwarts as Susan Harkins and JWC, I am running out of steam. I can barely
make it to the keyboard any more.

However, I can still remember things from long ago. To wit, from "The Love
Song of J. Alfred Prufrock" by Thomas Stearns Eliot:

I grow old, I grow old,
I shall wear the bottoms of my trousers rolled

A.
