Wilfred,              On 21 Apr 20 14:36, you wrote to me:               WV> You can't enter mixed or lowercase into the configuration program,        WV> only uppercase. And when someone updates the packet password through        WV> areafix it's converted to uppercase before storing in the        WV> configuration file. So on outgoing packet files the packet password is        WV> always uppercase only.              Oh the horror! There are people out there that I interface with that don't       know that rule and insist on setting mixedcase. Evil people. Smelly people.        Ugly people...              Cheers,       Paul.              ... ///\oo/\\\ There are no more bugs. ///\oo/\\\ ///\oo/\\\       --- GoldED+/LNX 1.1.5-b20130515        * Origin: Quinn's Rock - Live from Paul's Xubuntu desktop!
