I'm sure Mike was not implying that you are dumb nor was he trying to be-little you. Mike's is an extremely helpful/useful member of this list. Most of his comments are filled with more information and useful tips than many of us put together could muster. Given his high post rate, he tries very hard to lend a helping hand and does not deserve to be called useless. Remember that it is difficult to understand the tone that a particular email was written in. It seemed to me that Mike was simply questioning your method and offering an alternative solution; this is a very effective way of helping people. I hope your day goes better . . . it's the freakin' weekend. Matt W.
