Re: CPO work properly on Win2K? -- CODE400-L

Hallelujah!!! You had the answer, Reeve!! Apparently, you cannot have cache
selected when you first create a CPO! Does it say that in the documentation, or
am I just an idiot?!!! (No answers please!) Anyway, thank you SO MUCH, Reeve. If
I weren't happily married (and you weren't the same sex) I'd give you a big
kiss!! ha ha.

Thanks again!

Chris
