Thank you very much for your remarks. I will have subscription continuations
for the individual modules. Just right now they are new and nobody needs to
upgrade them yet. I will have that ready when the time comes.

Subject: [IBO] Can you explain more about upgrade subscriptions !


> We decided to buy IBObjects components because they are
