Outstanding, Adam, thanks for telling us!

Wow...

I wonder what the memory limits are...they gave me this new software

Being able to attach PDFs to the List is a real blessing...

I am putting together John1 right now, with SignBank Document Maker  
program inside SignBank...a lot of fun!

Val ;-)
