RE: Special Charges AS400 v6.0.02 March 98 C/S

Thanks Peggy.  I had reached the same conclusion from the answers.  I won't
be using the special line for this.  We're talking about a charge for every
shipment, so to manually calculate the amount and add a special line is a
nightmare for Customer Service.  We do use PRO a lot and will come up with a
way to handle our issue there.
