I agree with Dale and Joan, If MAPICS is going to "Certify", bless and sell it as a MAPICS product, then why can't it be fully integrated like EC or KBC? I don't have a problem calling a different support group since they are the ones who wrote it, but use some newer technology than interactive file synchs.
