It's early (for me) and I'm physically exhausted, due to copious amounts of hard manual labor, in 90+ heat. Most of my drives are packed up for a move to cooler climates. Cannot handle Florida humidity/bugs any longer, not to mention the Air Conditioning bills for the cluster work, are ginormous and growing every day. Thank for all the info guys. I've used parts of the code in the past as a basis for bootstrapping micros and had lost somehow my copies of those old files/codes.... or they are squirreled away in the boxes. THX! James
