    About 4 weeks.
    Since when has the world of computer software design been about what people want? This is a simple question of evolution. The day is quickly coming when every knee will bow down to a silicon fist, and you will all beg your binary gods for mercy.

    It varies because all lenders send their information to the CRA on different dates during the month. PROLIANT is right to advise oceanscape to wait 4 weeks as you are then guarnteed to have this marked as settled!! :D:D:D

    I would like to apologise for my disgraceful behaviour earlier. It was not necessary and if I have offended anyone please accept my apologies, I will in future behave as is expected on a public forum.

    Proliant, I know you're genuine and apologise for suggesting otherwise. You give immense help and I appreciate it, you've even helped me so I have no right to call you names and I apologise.
    :o 2010 - year of the troll :o

    Ok, I didn't have to look too far. Life's too short guys. Jeez, someone's just trying to get attention. Best thing to do is to ignore it - don't fuel the fire
