Hi Git, good to come in and "set" for a while ;-) I've been reading older posts from this week. You've been busy!

And thanks Ron for the Links. I think I had been up too long last night and definately was functioning below capacity! My links always wound up on the "Report: Y2K problems could close DOD chemical plant" story!
