Stewart, you can get Edward to create a new option for you by going to
www.namesys.com/support.html

 $25 and you get a patch and all the additional support you need (sounds
like you may need some for figuring out what version you have on the
disk, etc.).

Or you might try what Ryan says, and save $25.
