Hi Werner - In my experience using plugins like TC and QP, any changes along 
those lines, if AB even allows you to make them, are likely to be 
overwritten the next time the plugin reads the 3rd-party DB, which you must 
do from time to time if you want to get new issues, etc. One thought, if you 
use an #include file in your codes to define your settings as some do, you 
could add a line there that redefines the Volume array, then any call to 
Volume after that should use the redefined array. It shouldn't rewrite your 
DB but might make things easier.  Funny thing is, I think we have quite a 
few people here that use TC for their data and I don't recall anyone 
mentioning this before, which makes me think the problem may be unique to 
your machine. You might try creating a new DB, or possibly try creating one 
that stores the data locally and then one that doesn't to see if that has 
any effect. Good luck!

Steve
