Web Access + Port Control

[Ken Ray]

Uh, Gary... it *did* remove the formatting... and all the line breaks as
well. Fine for a short post, but if you post a long one with code in it, it
will be pretty hard to read.

Outlook sounds like a good option to me. ;-)

> An update on my problem with using revGoURL with XP and an SBCGlobal DSL
connection. It seems that the DSL software also installed an SBC browser.
Somewhere in the process this added extra characters to an address sent with
revGoURL and did not work. I am happy to say that changing the XP system
settings back to Internet Explorer has fixed the problem. Thanks for all the
useful suggestions.But now another problem. My DSL connection is through the
USB port on phone line A.  I can access the web and use RR to dial phone
numbers through an internal modem on phone line B. However when I listen to
LaunchCast I cannot access the modem port with the usual 'open file "com3:"
for write' command. LaunchCast is set to download music through the DSL
connection, but it appears to commandeer the modem port as well. The port
becomes available as soon as I shut down LaunchCast. Is there any other way
regain access to it through RR?Thanks for the reminder to post my messages
in Plain Text. Cur!
> rently I have the SBC Yahoo Mail system that comes with the DSL and it
does not appear to offer a Plain option. It is probably possible to change
to OutLook which would be better, but I have not had time to do that yet.
And maybe I can build something better within RR using the improvements
coming later this month.As I write I see that there is a "Plain" button
lurking up the top of this page. I will use it and see if it removes the
formatting. Appologies if it does not. Sorry If I do not have all the
technical terminology correct - but I think you can get the idea.Happy
programming y'all - Gary
