Hi Tom,
Thanks for investigating.
I invested another hour this morning and I finally found a working link.
I was right. This was a light tutorial from 2005, done by somebody from Italy at the treddi.com forum. I just found it 10 minutes ago, so I need some time to read all the threads. If I can find any spare time, I will try and make an EIAS project version out of this. This should be interesting. I am still on EIAS 7, and would like to see some results from you guys, using the EIAS 8 version.
