Gary,
As I mentioned to Kevin, trying to rely on the dealer network for competent
support is becoming increasingly a more frustrating situation. How can you
try to get support from someone who has never even used what you need
support for? It appears they kept shoveling 2.01 out the door (wouldn't
want to waste existing stock) and telling the naive dealers, "don't worry
about it. Nobody'll notice the difference. Only power users use any of
that stuff anyway." Gary, I get Autocad files defined by color on a
regular basis. Why can't I get what I'm supposed to get? Moreover, why
can't I get someone whose responsibility it is to get it right to answer
that question? Gary, I very much enjoy this product. I've invested 10s of
thousands of dollars in it and equipment to operate it. And my motivation
is not to throw some poor programmer into a fit of depression, and cause
him or her to not write any more software because their feelings are hurt.
I sometimes wish you had just written this program for someone else who
could distribute it. Well, Gary, I've got a project that I could have
possibly justified some IPAS routines for. But obviously, it's going to
take at least another 2 weeks to get what I should have gotten 2 weeks ago.
So I guess I don't need any IPAS routines for this project, huh? This is a
heck of a way to run a railroad.

P.S. Do you or anyone else know of an address where I can write Carol
Bartz?
