Users who don't look get the hint of a DUP to nudge them to check before filing next time. As you said, everyone wins! (As I posted earlier, I really don't mind a 3-day or 1 week hold-off, either. If devs want it... <shrug>. But I really don't see the big deal either way, and this way does have the advantages listed above.) -- Duncan - List replies preferred. No HTML msgs.
