Let's make sure I understand your message,  For several years, I've been
using MS Vers 4.0 for all my commodity and stock charts==beautiful
charts-- totally satisfied.  Now you tell me that after 31 Dec 99,  my
program may not work, and you don't particularily give a good damn. 
Doesn't sound much like the Bill Forman I had the pleasure of meeting
several years ago.  He took the time and trouble to sit down with me and
make sure that my MS program would work.  Well--times and people change.
