Just a little tidbit of info. for future reference:

In a Usenet Group, saying "the above message" is not a useful piece of
information.
Messages arrive at various news servers in various orders.
Users can (and do) set their client readers to sort the message list in
different ways.
SO.........
The "above message" for you might be (and probably IS) something entirely
different for someone else !!

If it is a small piece of info. (as it seems to be in this case), it would
be better to QUOTE it............only, instead of quoting the entire message
tree.

Cheers!

Jon was refering to HIS 12/22 post that applied to Quicken 2008. Since Art
was posting concerning Quicken 2007 Jon's message was not very useful.

And Art posted that he had run the Quicken update already. He also said that
he was running Quicken 2007 so Intuit might not have fixed that version yet.
