Rather than hoping that an implementation of an extension will be backported to the platform of origin, I need to contact the vendor of that platform. I can see where that'll get me, but it's worth a shot. Nonetheless, your call is definitely the decisive blow to the idea. I shoulda thought of it myself. :-) Ciao, Sheldon.
