I trust this mistake will be corrected pronto - but I'm not holding my breath :-(
This bug is currently assigned to me. I'll need to verify it, but it looks like you're right. I can't promise anything, but I expect that we'll be able to fix it this month. However, the fix will be in VC11, and NOT released as a hotfix for VC10.
:-) But tell me if I can help - I initially used a brute force loopback method to check - took overnight & kept my office warm ;-) Paul --- Paul A. Bristow, Prizet Farmhouse, Kendal LA8 8AB UK +44 1539 561830 07714330204 pbristow@hetp.u-net.com
