Yea, I added it once and for some reason, likely a upgrade, it sort of got deleted. After a couple times, I just let the red wiggly line annoy the crap out of me. lol Yea, I got tired of trying to figure out what was called what. The word thingy hit me and I use it for the init thingys, thingies, and a few other things now. Just don't get me started on hal again. That thingy still pisses me off. I need a blood pressure pill now. I wish I could forget that thing. :/ Dale :-) :-)
