XRF - Cool!

This looks like it could be a very valuable tool.

Thank you,

Have you (or anyone else that responded to this question, for that matter) 
actually _READ_ this statement?  "I am on the verge of losing the job as i
am 
not so well versed with BPCS standards."  Sorry, but _THAT_ is the biggest 
load of horse hockey that I've heard in quite some time.  As one who has 
spent a great deal of time at a great many clients supposedly enforcing BPCS

standards (but rarely having the _authority_ to do so), I can surely tell
you 
that there is not a _SINGLE_ person I've seen over the past ten years in any

danger of losing their job over not following standards.  Unless you're 
working for SSA/GT itself, which I know for a fact hands you more standards 
documentation when you walk in the door than you can possibly absorb in a 
_MONTH_, you must _SURELY_ be misstating this question.

Sorry to sound so callous but, either your employer is an idiot, this 
question was phrased incorrectly, or you misrepresented yourself as a BPCS 
"expert" to them when you were hired.  The latter seems far more likely to 
me.  Fortunately, many people learned about the "DOC" menu from this thread.

Hopefully, a few more will check out "XRF"...
