Sorry, I did not understand the code correctly there.

Yes, my fault!

Yes, okay, that would work.

Was not my idea! :-)


Thanks for your answer. You are right, that should work as it is now.
Maybe I will make just a few additions. 
But first I will have to study your code more thouroghly.
Sorry again, for the misunderstanding.

Greetings
Tanja
