Joe, A thank you from me too. I had a tombstone with that word also and had been trying to figure it out. You help even when you dont know you are helping, or should I say, who you are helping. Now it makes sense, thank you again. Ginny marys1015 <[email protected]> wrote: Joe, I was way off in trying to figure that one out.
