I asked about this a couple days ago in the mvToolbox forum, and was told that product should be able to help with this. That's no surprise as it has a million other features, so why not this one? mvToolbox is one of the best products in this industry, but it's largely unknown and thus seriously under-appreciated. Get a 1-year (!?) free trial: http://www.mvtoolbox.com No, I have nothing to gain from recommending this software. I am not a developer, sales rep, nor providing related services. It's just good software that deserves an occasional mention.
