Wow - so much interest
First of all, thanks for everyone's contributions and especially Micke for the script. I've downloaded it and it works fine for issue 2, "multiple rows in listfile":
Code:

Regarding the second, and more important, issue for me, I'd be happy with an option to store the machine & share names. Options are good
I guess we'll have to agree to disagree on whether a developers "tidying up", affecting functionality of the product, is right. If other users are reporting it as a bug then a decision has to be made, one way or the other - which is what's happened. Unfortunately, this time, I was at the wrong end of the decision.
Regarding a refund? I don't one. I think I've had real value for money from PACL and wish to contribute to it's continued development. Version 6 does offer so much more (as you say) and I like the way coneXware operates. I do feel a little guilty that I didn't test the version 6 beta as these issues would have surfaced much earlier.
Keep up the good work guys and here's looking forward to 6.02. Let me know if I can help with testing etc.
