Thanks for posting this helba, don't know your name. I sat in on this presentation and I was encouraged. Was going to post it but you beat me to it so thanks. Tykerb will be released soon and this will give us more options of combos to try and I am sure the docs will brain storm and come up with even more. So this is great news for us IBC'ers. Things keep looking up for us. Steph we missed you this year. It was a very busy time and lots happening I am sure you would have enjoyed it. hugs, Sandy
