-> RW> "All" usually sends the message to "All."

-> Nope, it doesn't.  Writing a message to All in WINServer is like
-> write a message to ALL in a FidoNET echo.  a cc is not sent out to
-> all your users. Most BBS packages have this feature.  I left a
-> message on the WINServer listserver and what I found out is that I
-> would need to buy the wcReports package.  Santronics, or Mustang
-> Software, made a choice at some point to spread needed features over
-> 2, 3 or 4 different programs so that a SysOP was forced to buy 2, 3
-> or 4 different programs.  I have spent soooooo much  over the years
-> supporting Santronics.... I am just not going to spe other dime so
-> that I can cc a message to all my users.

So you are wanting to send the same message at once to every user on your
system individually?  Seems like an easy job for a wcCODE module to me.  But,
you are right.  A lot of other BBS packages do have this feature built in.
