The computer field is one in which many people freely give of their knowledge and expertise. Chuck, Larry, David, Michael, Charlie, Steve, and everyone else — thanks for the help! Extra thanks goes to my coauthor, Cecelia, who has kept me on target, and Tim and Beth at Wordware, who keep pushing me to finish things.
