Thank you, Paul. I imagine there must have been considerable discussion of this in the past month or so that I missed ... I will look back through the archives and try to catch up on this and find a link. If anyone is feeling generous and willing to post a link to the patches I will be most grateful. Otherwise, I'll see if i can find it in the archives. Thanks, Eric Rz.
