Thank you Rossko. I have a strong feeling you have guided me in the
right direction, and I surely will try to follow your instructions.
The reason there is no evidence of any attempt of my doing this in my
map is I see other people post their code even with it having a
problem and I assume that takes even more effort for someone that
knows what they are doing to help them even when there may be problems
with their code other then what they are trying to do, so I figured
I'd post a map that is working without any other possible problems
such as a missing ; or something that just delays the fix and then
what I need to add, change or whatever is faster to recognize. I go
through lots of test map pages so that I don't mess up what I already
have.
