Hi Roy.
I'm a long time reader of these NG's and just want you
to know how much I (and I'm sure, a lot others) appreciate
all your friendly and useful answers here. I've learned
a lot from you so again: Thank you very much!

Best regards,
Rolf Nilsson

Exactly!  In my youth I wrote a bit of communication software to do sales reporting from cash registers.  I hard coded
the VAT % (stupid I know).  When the powers that be decided to increase the VAT I offered an upgrade (diskette in post)
for a fiver which parameterised the rate and added a few improvements.  Everyone bought it apart from my Yorkshire
reseller who used a hex editor to change the relevant bytes in the exe to make the extraction at the new rate!

Being a Scot, I appreciated the virtue Smiley

If I'm ever down Edinburgh way we must meet up and you can buy me a coffee to replace the one I just spluttered into the keyboard!

Sounds good to me.  I work outside Edinburgh, close to IKEA so you could combine it with a lovely shopping trip!

Cheers
