thanks for the info... I wasn't sure if exs operated
the same way say stylus rmx does in that you can take
the sage library off the main drive and just put an
alias in its place.  I didn't want to move anything
and create more issues when exs sometimes has trouble
finding certain files already... EXS manager is on my
list of to do's I just didn't think I could wait.
