Ken,

This is great stuff!  I see that I'm going to need to get a copy of Visio for my
home machine in order to take advantage of your handy work.  Please keep it coming!

One question:  I like the option of drawing a line or using a number for the know
settings, what are the options for the switch settings?

Eric

I'm so glad you pointed out the 'droopy' patchcord connector! It makes "hell
of difference," as my old design teacher, Mr. Tomasewski, used to say!

I don't want to sound like an ad for Visio, but I think this program can
*really* be of use to us modular users for this kind of thing. It's very
fast and intuitive, once the stencil has been created.

Here's an image of a patch I created in Visio. Once I got around some
translation problems between Ken's and my versions of Visio, and once I
had
created some droopy patchcord objects, I knocked this picture out in
about 5
minutes. Best of all, as Ken has already mentioned, you can drag the
