Hmmm... looks like you nailed a bug in the doco... and since
I am the one that did this version of the User Guide, it is
my mistake.  This version of the User Guide was put out during
the transition of the maintaining of the document over to the
Mitel Customer Documentation staff.  It seems that in the middle
of the transition, I did not do enough verification of the
screen shots.  I did go through and check them all, but obviously
missed this one.

My apologies,
Dan

You are definitely right that you shouldn't have to, and as
the guy who wrote the product announcement - as well as the
User Guide - it looks like I need to clarify our XP/2000 support.
I'll post something here as soon as I can.

Dan
