Dave Carpenter We're getting closer but #1 should be: Check the archives BEFORE posting your question. 99% of all questions have been asked/answered/discussed 5 times already. While we're at it, how about adding to the netiquette NOT using signature lines at the end. Some folks use about 9 or 10 lines to quote some obscure, meaningless phrase, or list every URL they ever visited, over and over again 5 posts/day. Malcolm |
