You have posted many times on this issue, Kris, and always the same post: about the problem, not the solution. I spent three hours last night googling, and running through the lists. Yes, a lot has been posted but nary a word of solution. Am I on acid or what? Twelve years of STFW, and I am a novice. Go figure... Cheers, J.
