Well, I learned something today. I had never considered technical
writing in a bank. I have to admit that I know absolutely nothing about
banking (other than how to balance my cheque book, but that is sometimes
still hit or miss). I am more than happy to take your word for writing in
the banking industry. Thanks, now I know something new. 8>) (big grin)
