I did the default install of VA2.0a from CD, directing install to
same dir as VP1.0b. First time run of VA, enter S/N from 1st page of
VA manual. Second time run, start up internet connection, click on
register, prog interacts with SF, poof, you're registered. No
numbers to cut/paste as in the past.

Bravo !!!

here's to a happier and hopefully tape free tomorrow
(a virtual-pot free and fat channel free tomorrow would be nice too)

Let's not get all warm and fuzzy about this ... most of the long time
forum participants appreciate, tolerate, or ignore "difference of
opinion" quite nicely. The escalation of "difference of opinion" into
personal abuse, particulary the recent abuse of forum members names,
ceases to be "difference of opinion" and is inexcusable ... you might
as well be using my checkbook or my wife.

Nuff said ... and keep in mind that this is a "differing" opinion. :)

KAC ...

I agree until the miss use of hurting other users who have legitament
questions are thrown off track by gibberish answers to their posts.Or
using peoples names.A 13 year old child I expect that from.not an
adult or PROffesional!
Nuff said.
