Re: FirM User Document



Hi Dan
Sorry i thought the whole thing was totally dead in the
water,,,,,,But to be honest since doing the pc interface for FirM  I havnt
had any serious interest shown ..so im not at all surprized you have not
developed it further..Its a pity though as i thought it was shaping up
quite
well.......
Drop a line to Darryl maybe he can you can help him intergrate your IRM 
nto
his pc software..............
