Matya, Ha, ha, ha! Thank you good friend. I did say I didn't try the code :-) AF> Please note, I haven't tried this. It just seems plausible. I apologize if I confused anyone. I just meant to show how the parameter could help retrieve a picture. I wasn't too concerned with the particulars. Hopefully the concept is sound. If not, please do flame my note so no one attempts it.
