Help! I wanted to upload a VB program hoping to get some feedback from forum members–but being new at this I wasn't sure how to go about it. So last Thursday, I uploaded (at least Compuserve seemed to inhale it) the file. In the intervening days, I've sent in 3 messages trying to touch base with SYSOP, but I think I didn't do itToday zipped file showed up on New Uploads, but: 1. I found my abstract was too wordy and got truncated. I wrote a new, more cryptic one. 2. I have since fixed a VB timing thing by adding a DOEVENTS(). So, can I upload a new revision, to replace the previous one, or will that cause confusion? Can anyone advise. JP pppppppppppppp There is 1 Reply.

John: You might ask Eric Landes (76701,76), he's the MS Section Leader in these parts. I think the SYSOP died or something; nobody's heard from him in a long time (he doesn't return messages or phone calls anyway, so you're wasting your time addressing anything to him) and the Libs have been f***ed up for three weeks now. Sorry; I pay good money to be here too! There is 1 Reply.

Keith: Thanks for the advice. I was about to try a note in a bottle. But I do recall seeing Eric's name on here. The trouble is, there are so many *REGULARS* on here, you don't know who is who. Thanks. JP There is 1 Reply.

John, Since you uploaded the original file, you can delete it. However, if you delete a file, either upload your replacement with a different filename or wait a day or two before re-uploading. I've lost several files over on WINADV when trying to update a file. George There is 1 Reply.
