Hi Wizzud, thanks for the comprehensive reply... The information you
provided should be very helpful to me... I am at work now, but plan on
fix'n up my code later tonight. :)
I will work on things a bit further and report back with my findings.
Again, many thanks! I really appreciate your time and help.
Cheers,
Micky
