I'm not really familiar with DF activities.  Can you dummy up a set of 
reports and send it to me so I know what sort of thing to expect?  I'll 
put them into objects so you can visually see what we'll have to work 
with as the real reports start coming in.

PS.  How did your ITEMinMSG object go last night?  May I ask what you 
used to generate it (APRX76?) and why you sent it to TESTING instead of 
a real station?
