Just a quick note of thanks to all who have lent their support to my VModem/Telix difficulties of late. Seeing as it refuses to be a solveable problem, I've picked up ZOC and am (slowly) learning its ropes. I guess you can teach an old dog new tricks. :) One thing I can say for certain so far, is that ZOC is certainly much smoother to deal with than the copy of HA Lite that came with the Bonus Pack! -Don ...
