ARRRGGHHHH!!!  I already mailed my order for the Standard Edition at $79...
Now I find out that the Pro Edition is available to me at $99 as I have
the ProToolKit....  Why wasn't this in my upgrade notice??? !

I would have been glad to order VB 2.0 Pro had I known I could get it for $20
more...

Anyone at Microsoft have any suggestions on how I can fix this?????

Sheesh...
