Hi Hugh,
Thank you so much for the code: it's exactly what I was looking for. Sorry
about the delay in replying: we had a major power outage: went out Saturday
at 8 p.m. and we finally got it back Monday at 3:15p.m. (with multiple
on/offs!). The phone went dead as well. Great fun!
Anyway, I'd like to get back to you, once I get some files back in order.
that were messed up forrm the crash shutdowns.
Thanks again,
Andre
