How much clearer, and how many more times, does the text from the digest email have to describe /what to do/ "When replying", before the subscriber finally gets the point? From the digest-specific portion of the quoted message [emphasis my own], the following two requests:

1> "please *edit your Subject line* so it is more specific than "Re: Contents of MIDRANGE-L digest...""

2> "PLEASE *remove all text unrelated to your reply* and change the subject line so it is meaningful."

So why the continued disregard for those very clearly composed requests\instructions within the digest? Plus having ignored similar commentary in some prior replies in other threads; at least one reply, in which directions for alternatives to digest mode were offered? Anyone expecting some respect from [the other users of] the list, would do well to avoid disrespecting the list; i.e. the conventions\rules of the list, the effects on the archives of the list, and the other users of the list.

I am very close to adding "Crystal Reports" to my kill-file.

Regards, Chuck

Thanks for responses I will check this later. I got my files over for
now. The problem was I have to refresh the Crystal Reports and my
file will show. However, it has to be under the letter "E". I want to
find out why this is.

When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific
than "Re: Contents of MIDRANGE-L digest..."


*** NOTE: When replying to this digest message, PLEASE remove all
text unrelated to your reply and change the subject line so it is
meaningful.
