Really DUMB MOVE... I went looking for a SQL ERROR the other day and was
FORCED to configure my laptop to access the internet from PODUNK,
OUTINTHESTICKS site. When I got back in town I found my 4.3 CD and it no
longer stays behind.

IBM IF YOU ARE READING THIS... GIVE US THE OPTION OF CD, DON'T FORCE US
ON TO THE NET!!! It isn't always THE ANSWER
