[WT-support] Question

[Ken Chandler]

Hi Bob
False alarm, I upload my adi file to a site and I got a message from  
the keeper saying he wants a country field for each contact, I never  
questioned him at that time as to why he needed it, I asked the group  
but in the meantime I thought about this an challenged him as to why  
as it's not needed in the field. He saw sence and bined it!
