Hi all

LOL, maybe it's a new sort of error that is yet to be named. I'll
suggest calling it an "Easter Egg Error". The MenuBuilder application
that ships with Captivate has similar errors. One is a generic error of
"F". The other is one that says "$ is not a valid integer". The weird
part is that both errors mean that the file you are linking to cannot be
found.

Cheers... Rick :)
