Should be within a couple of months. If I were you, I'd find another distributor. And you should get on their yearly maintenance program where you get all the updates free. In any case, I would think that if a new version came out shortly after you purchased one, you would be offered the update at little or no charge - they can't expect to be successful if they don't do that. -- ===================================================================== == Jerry Petrey == == Consultant Software Engineer - Member Team Ada and Team Forth == == Rockwell Collins Commercial Avionics Group == == Melbourne, FL email: gdp@mlb.cca.rockwell.com == =====================================================================
