AHA - found some of what I needed and found out why I have not contributed already.  I don't do paypal (after some uncomfortable moments decided I did not trust it).  I don't have checks.  I am in Spain and getting money from Spain even into place in Spain is difficult at best.  Outside is almost impossible.  If I can find someone who can send a check who I can then reimburse I will do that.

For example, I have an insight licence but my login does not seem to recognize this.  Do I also need to purchase the license for the group?

It would be nice to have some knowledge of how this works.  Do we just come to this page at that time?  Is there information about Insight online that we can read now?

Thanks George. Could we also address other Insight-live questions in this session? I have two:

1. The recipes list AMT and also give percentages for materials. What do the AMT's represent?

2. I've uploaded all my Glazemaster recipes to my personal Insight-live database. Some are duplicates of recipes already in the group database. I would like to transfer some of the others into the group database. Is there a way to do this without entering them manually?

George,

Time works out better for me. See you Sat. How do we check in?

I have something else scheduled at that time but I might be able to reschedule. I have not solved my microphone  problem. Someone said it might be in the drivers and I would need to take it in. Hasn't happened. I might call in, like before. Hope you get enough people. For those who have not looked at Insight & the data base, You are missing out!  It is awesome! Go to the meeting. Thank's

As soon as there is enough interest expressed by members, we can schedule another Saturday session at around 4 PM Eastern time (US), which should make it workable for our European friends.

Tips for Members

If you just want to spout off, it is best accomplished as a blog posting. If you want to get more guidance and ideas from other members, ask a question as a new discussion topic. In the upper right corner of the lists for both types of posting, you will find an "+Add " button. Clicking it will open an editor where you create your posting. 4/16/2014
