Hi Prerana,
If you could post your working code that would be greatly appreciated. I
have hit a brick wall as what I have done "should" be working but it simply
isn't. If I could replicate what you have done that would be fantastic.
This has wasted sooooo much of my time this week!
Thanks Again.
Ben
