Although it likely won't come together for this week....please shoot me an email (**kevin_n_baron(a)yahoo.ca* <mailto:kevin_n_baron@yahoo.ca>*) if you would like me to organize this event for next Thursday (Aug 17th).

Hello to all, When registering for a Continuing course, you will probably receive an error message that states "repeat count exceeds 1" (if this is the first time you are registering for this course, then you will not get an error message). I have already advised our Aurora coach of this problem and am waiting for an answer which I will e-mail to all of you. thanks, Bev -- Bev Godard Secretary Department of Plant Science University of Manitoba 66 Dafoe Road Winnipeg, Manitoba R3T 2N2 Phone: (204) 474-8563 Fax: (204) 474-7528 Bev_Godard(a)umanitoba.ca
