I had the Bentley CD.  Of course, I have a printed copy, as
would anyone after trying to use the CD....

Anyway, I had not used the CD for a long time and tried to re-install
it last spring.  I got into a mess and called Bentley.  It turns out
that the CD software used a non-standard feature of older web
browsers and the browser folks (IE and Netscape) broke that
feature and so Bentley came out with new software (eBahn) that
worked a different way.  Along the way, Bentley lost the right
from VW to the source for the printed copy and the CD.  The
printed copy was "in print" so OK, but they could not produce
a CD with the eBahn software.  VW let them do the microfiche,
so that is the CD available now.

If you have the old CD, as I did, call Bentley and
ask to exchange it for a printed copy and they will do that.
They did for me in April or May.

Also, the old CD WILL work with Netscape 4, which I still
had on a machine.....
