    Digital,

    One more question if you do not mind sharing.
    How does SBBS handle its kludge information, specifically how does it store that information? Do you write the message with kludge, message, seenby, path, etc as one field, or do you save each field as a seperate column or whatever
    mechanism the DB stores as?

    I was storing it all seperate but I think I have overcomplicated the whole thing and could probably just save the message text and have the reader properly parse and display.

    Thanks,

    Digital,

    One more question if you do not mind sharing.

    I painstakingly documented "how" back in the early/mid 90s: https://synchro.net/docs/smb.html
