Thanks, Mike for asking the question I was going to be grappling with today! (And I'm not exactly a Rev newbie, but have not had the time to work with Rev much lately.)

I always find things easier to remember if I understand WHY I'm doing them that way. Marian On Wednesday, April 3, 2002, at 07:09 AM, Jeanne A. E.
