LOL, I listen. I did say "I just gotta vent" did I not? I haven't heard anyone say it isn't a bug, except for Shamil IIRC who called it "by design". And he doesn't bother to explain wht a bug is "by design". In fact, isn't EVERY bug "by design"? I mean we design the bug, but we normally try to fix them. Tony, there's a million ways to skin a cat. The point is that I shouldn't have to try a dozen cuts to find one that works. The damned cat is complaining.
