programm issues--moving files back and forth

[Tyler Littlefield]

well, thanks for the info on cisco; I was not aware of the global training.
I'll check out the website, though I know people who have went through 
public schools and completed the certification, so I'd like to see if I can 
do that. It may help with it though.

Thanks,
Tyler Littlefield
