You can't do it. I'm an artist. I think out of my right hemisphere, not my left like you. You couldn't possibly understand. Yes, sometimes I chide myself for the questions I ask when I see the answers come back. The problem is that I quite literally can't think like you. I have to force myself to do it every time. To you it's as natural as breathing, which is why you can't relate. Thank you for your help anyway. Thank you for your patience. Please try to understand. It starts by understanding you can't understand. You have my continued promise that I will do all I can to edit my questions as intelligently as you would before I post them. Trust me, I don't like looking foolish, and I know I do. You should recognize that that alone is chiding enough. It doesn't stop me, however, for continuing to program. The whole universe is a program. I program to understand it in a way you couldn't even begin to grasp. BTW, although I know full well about dictionaries, I didn't know one could use them like you indicated, nor would I have known how to google it. I did try googling, FYI. V
