Keith, we should all thank God that I'm not a pharmacist! No telling how many that could have killed.... The error was not in the checking but in the reporting. I was hurrying to get to a class to give an exam (no excuse). I proofread the volume- and certificate-numbers three times after I caught a typo in one, but the error in the year escaped me. Haste really DOES make waste! The 6/69 should have read 6/59. My most humble apologies! --Brian *********************************** Keith A.
