Hi all, Just a note of "here here!" in agreement with Janina. I too, have saved many of your posts, Kerry. For those of us who are learning (always learning) and want to know "how things really work", we appreciate someone like you with more knowledge and experience, who takes the time to give us solid answers. It doesn't take long, following a list, to see who posts meaningful messages, and who just likes to have a soapbox from which to vent. I often find myself scanning the index of incoming messages, reading the "From" " field, deleteing messages that are from people who I've come to know as whiners and soapboxers. When I see Kerry's name (and a few others), I read the message. Thanks, Kerry and you few who post messages of substance (you know who you are). If it weren't for you I (and probably some others here) would have unsubscribed long ago. --terry PS Sorry ofr the soapbox here... Just wanted to express apreciation for those who post helpful messages.
