No Fred I don't have a problem with that.
From your previous post you were adament that upgrades were at the
disgression of Vector. As 9 and 9.3 are very close in numerical order
and as was discussed from other software vendors this would have been
a free upgrade. If there was a lot of extra work involved in this
version perhaps people would feel better if the newer version was
badged as V10.

As regards being a CAM customer I agree I'm not a user, at the moment
time doesn't allow me but I do have a genuine copy, licensed, of
v 8.0 so that makes me a customer.

Sorry? I don't have a bone to pick with you. I've only ever discussed
points of operation or methods about Vector. Surely that's allowed?
I certainly don't want you to stop your service to your customers,
not that I could anyway. I don't have anything to gain from it. I
know you find it very hard to believe but I assure you I have no
connection to any other software at all. If it will make you feel any
better I'll drop the whole upgrade subject.
