- About .001 seconds after I posted this, I realized that I was wrong. I then
- proceeded to the grey wall (or whatever you want to call it when it is on cd)
- and confirm that the original poster was correct. The PQL's are minimum
- values. (stupid 'cause I knew that). The idea of a batch job or run/detach
- is the best way to do it.
-
- sorry.
