Thanks Praveen, I suggest you to take the code to a VB environment and test it. But the approach is good.
Dear Mike, the things which matters most is whether our problem is solved or not. If you need the answer in VBA, then you would have mentioned specifically a "VBA Solution Only". I generally avoid using VBA code for each and every thing, because commonly it is not appreciated by users / learners and moreove they find it difficult to understand and to further customize as per their changing needs.
