So what happens when a secretary |wants to use Publisher but 2 other secretaries and 3 grad students are |already using it? Go persuade somebody to logoff? Fume? (This is not a |hypothetical situation. It can be very real with a big user community.) I assume they would do the same thing as someone whom walked over to a machine to find it occupied: Complain to their management that they need more licences. Except with Publisher you don't have to walk over to the other end of the building to discover you wasted a trip. -- Bruce G.
