profile customers currently on maintenance.

a limited amount of free email and telephone support regarding the operation of
MetaCheck and understanding the warnings and errors generated by MetaCheck.
·
You may email a
limited number of sample CGM files that you might be having difficulty
understanding and receive advice on interpreting the MetaCheck output.
·
If you need in-depth
or extended consulting on Metafiles, you will receive a preferential hourly
consulting rate as a maintenance customer (typically 20-30% discount off normal
