Dear Kevin:
Thanks very much for your replies.
I just received an email from Epicor Support regarding my call. The
email is instructing me to do everything that I have already done the
past 2 days: Make the BAQ shared & global and make sure Sonic is
installed and running.
I will call the number she gave me in the email.
Lynn
