Well, I'll be!
It was there in V6, but they took it away in V7 and I did not even notice,
since I'm not a big fan of launching it from Netview. Thanks for the
correction.

Leslie,
in you reply you state:
"There is no overhead involved in having the integration on the netview
system. If you launch CW from there, there is. If you launch it from the
web client, the overhead is on your PC."
>From this I understand it is possible to launch CW from the Web interface.
I have installed the integration, but do not see any menu option to CW.
Support says it is not possible to use CW from the Web.
I'm a bit confused.
Can you confirm whether or not I can access CW frm the Web and if yes, how
?
Thanks in advance,
Bernard Baudoux
