And I daresay Donald will probably be quite amused to see the stir this thread has caused when he returns as well. :-) Cheers, -- Toni Skidmore Tingewick list Co-Admin Chicago, USA Researching: CLIFFORD/CLIFTON, DEAN(E), HOLLAND, NEAL(E), and NOQUET in Bucks Judith wrote: > If Donald's Out of Office set up is the same as mine, you will only get the > one message.
