One more web page for the road. ================================ I will check into the archives possibility. Although I agree that message threads are best kept to a mailing list and having them archived; the postings of directory information have not sparked any "threads." What if we were to pursue both avenues?--archiving and having a URL The URL can have a link to the archives. I can certainly understand about not having enough time; but I suppose that I am such a control freak that I still endeavor to handcraft my HTML. I certainly did not meant to denigrate any HTML editor nor anyone who uses one. Life is be far too short and too hectic at times -- so much of what is out there that provides convenience and can save us all some time is welcome. Rory http://www.erols.com/emcrcc/RGen.htm
