>>Uri Guttman Thank you for the code pointers Uri, It's much appreciated.

My code was offered for my own benefit (as you pointed out quite a few of my errors for me) and as a benefit to the requester. The code did produce the expected results albeit with some bad coding that is why I posted it. In my humble opinion I do think that beginners will benefit from this exchange. I know I did learn a lot. >secondly, please don't top post. you are quoting the entire previous >post below your email. google for top posting and you will learn why >this is a bad (if prevalent) email style. As far as "top posting" ... it makes a lot of sense not to do that. I will cultivate new posting habits on this list and propagate them to the other lists I belong to. It will greatly improve their readability. Regards Ian
