Dear Jonathan,

Ok, I removed the PriceField CommonAdjust line, and I was able to get
prices, but they didn't change for dealers, or for quantities.  Then I
changed it to PriceField 0 and the prices went to zero again.  I'm getting
the zero price with non-logged-in, non-dealer logged in, and dealer logged
in.

Not sure what the Autoload is?

Thanks,

Russell
