.Hey, I've actually been updating my code with respect to CVS. Right now, the attachments still work for me (with it being updated to the latest from CVS), but I'll contact srag to see how it might need to change. I've actually uploaded the latest patches against CVS to the sourceforge.net project (http://sourceforge.net/projects/evolution-memos/). I'll attach the patches to the bugzilla bug later today during my lunch break (since I'm at work). I'm glad you like it! :) Thanks, Nathan --- Harish <kharish novell com> wrote: > Hi, > > sorry for not responding earlier.
