Thanks. We'll migrate in due time to Strawberry on this box then.
The powers that be give me a hard time (rightfully so I guess) when we
install binaries except from "known" sources. I of course consider YOU a
very known source (after almost 20 years!!) but they might not. Did you do
anything special to the compilation of Strawberry? I might be forced to
install from the Strawberry site and then add modules by hand (or quietly
from you). Sometimes I hate rules, but I value my job....
