Thank you, that does help quit a bit. I am working on the corrections now. To the first poster... don't know what that meant. I thought I made my case understandable. Thank you again. I will work on that. I was attempting to open wade_stoddard... b/c that was my file I was working with, and I was told I had to open it in order to save information to another file so I could recall that information. Thank you again for the help Steven.
