Hi John, Hard to say, they respond quickly, but this matter may need some vetting from "powers that be". I am in comm's with CMC EC today, so maybe we'll here back soon. If not too much trouble you may want to script some pulls for the interim. I will keep you in the loop and pass information on to you as soon as I hear anything back. Cheers, Jeff > Thanks Jeff.
