    Just when you think you have everything running some what better...

    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

Anyone using Dietmar Loleit's HUDCA?

By the way, there IS a way to load a Window.X entry higher than 9, and it's relatively easy. You just need to use an Icon on the instrument panel, whether 2D, VC, or both.
Say I've got an radar screen I can open or close, to use as a TCAS, or refueling plane locator, or whatever. It's [Window.12] in my ficticious panel. I just need to place an Icon for it. I always put one on both the VC and 2d, so no matter which I'm using, I can pop it up real fast.

Many addons, like the HUDCA, or a radar display, come with an Ican included, so opening it is not a problem, whatever window number it may be. If it doesn't, well, making an icon for something isn't at all hard. Takes me about 10 minutes, once I find the picture I want to use to identify whatever it is.

David "Opa" Marshall wrote a "How-To" as part of his Tips and Tricks library, but I can't find which one, right now. Take a look through them, though. A quick, simple method for creating Icons to add to a pop-up so you can get it up easily without having to go to the menu bar. I'll look some more when I have time...
