Jim,
don't be upset! Please take into account that the mails arrived not right on time when
you sent another mail! I sent my mail BEFORE I saw you're working with memory streams!
It's is possible to handle strings as stream. Have a look at the streams bean of
alphaworks (streams.jar)

Hey, ... keep cool, it's just another deadline ;-)
