I agreed Michael that it does seem odd but have tried everything and this is the only combination that works. And as I said that was what the CIS people in Bristol suggested – well at least they agreed that unless AP sent a CR the node would not ackowlegde…

I would be grateful to hear from any UK (or European) amiga user who knows whether or not a Comms program exists which can access databases which use Viewdata as I have to use one such database every week and it really annoys me having to use my "Steam-driven" Amstrad…
