DITTO, basically! The very first time I tried it, it did EXACTLY as Don
described - just diddled at the end of the FIRST serial number - I had
10 QTCs to send at that time.
Then all other times I tried it, with LESS THAN 10 QTCs (e.g. 2,3,or 5),
all but the last one went OK, but it hung with the LAST serial number
and stuck there!
At this point I can't remember whether I used the DXP in last year's WAE
or not!
Wayne, can you help us on this one? Thanks Don - you made my evening!
