[QUOTE="curiousbrain, post: 961655, member: 31608"] That's a damn shame; as a person who generally sees technological progress as a good thing, it baffles me why this company does certain things the way they do. As it does others, I'm sure. I may have a more substantive response later this week, as I plan to play around with TFCS after the shift. At the very least, though, why hasn't someone written a better interface for TFCS? At the center where I am employed, it is a character-driven, telnet application; if I can't find a better one, I'm thinking I might do some research into trying to use Access/VBA+OLE (seems to be the UPS standard to some extent) to provide something nicer. Assuming there is a library to get data from the telnet application in an ordered way, and not resorting to screen scraping, of course. [/QUOTE]
