Most likely you can't send it to us because it is copyrighted. We do not accept copyrighted works unless they are publicly redistributable (shareware, freeware, demoware). If you have the time to fiddle around you can keep trying the program after each new BleedingEdge release. We're making substantial progress and maybe it will just start working. If you don't have the time you should wait for 1.99q and try again then. Richard> If I can get this to work, I will purchase Executor Richard> immediately. How much does the CD cost? Perhaps we can buy a copy (assuming it doesn't require QuickTime) and try to get it running ourselves.

We still have to finalize a particular deal in the US before we can work out foreign distribution. This is taking a little longer than we'd like (as usual). Sorry about that, but we *will* get some sort of distribution going in Oz. Richard> Thanks Richard> Richard Klemme rklemme@ozemail.com.au --Cliff ctm@ardi.com
