summer....I have! ;-))</DIV>

<DIV>And yes, of course, when the new ISWA is released officially it will be
accompanied by instruction. I am writing several manuals on the ISWA,
including some new web areas. They are only partially done. That is what
Jonathan was referring to....he found this web area:</DIV>
