Very cool! I am going to be keeping an eye on you two. My case number was assigned only 3 days after yours!

I'm just a little nervous about that barcode thing....

That's great to hear. Good luck and let's hope the rest happens as fast! ttyl,

No need to be MrsWhizz as it is tried and tested for over a year now with no problems. All the barcoded cover sheet is used for is to match it with your case in the system. If you do feel uncomfy with it there is the Timesavers instead.....I didnt use the James Shortcuts for personal reasons but they do work.
