Why upgrade to Webi ver 6.1b seeing that Webi ver 6.5 is available?

Forget this release :cry: :cry:

Have a look to different posts upon this. Couldn’t you go directly to 6.5 ?

When you start a new topic, there is a hyperlink to How to Ask Smart BOB Questions.

If you go down to the “Before You Ask” section, you’ll see:

Is there anything I should do before I ask my question?
The four things you should have already done before posting a question are…

  1. Read the manual (RTM) or Search the web (STW)
  2. Read the FAQ
  3. Ask a knowledgeable co-worker or friend
  4. Search BOB!
