As I was saying, I spend alot of my time trying to convince the programmers that work for me of that very fact: Don't do something automatic if (a) It's not a time-critical operation; (b) There is *ANY* chance that the automatic decision is wrong, and (c) the user is sitting right there. In this case, *I* popped the disk out, so I certainly am available to ask. It's not a time critical operation (QB can't continue until I put in a disk anyway), and the decision it makes automatically is most certainly wrong in my view. I started my contributions to this thread saying I had faith in CCS getting the problem fixed. However, I read a note about the AmiBack folks offering a competitive upgrade for $25. I still hope the QB folks get the thing fixed (there are ALOT of bugs in this thing right now), but for $25 I almost can't afford to not try AmiBack… Steve
