Paul,

Thanks for the message.  I called Omega today with the same question.  I
called from work on my calling card using the non toll free number for TS
4.0 technical support.  The first thing I got when the Omega recording
answered was a commercial.  I pushed all kind of buttons, 0, #, etc, to try
and cut off the commercial which I was paying for with my long distance
dollars.  No luck.  I finally got a message that said the wait time was 15
minutes.  That was the end of that call.  I was going to send an email to
Omega tonight when I read your post.

If anyone hears any future news on the Portfolio Maximizer Y2K patch, please
let us know.

Dave
