Very cool! Thanks. That's what I like about technical newsgroups/ mailinglists. Where one person's knowledge lacks, someone else steps in to fill the detail. =:^) I gotta tag that in memory so I can find it again, if I ever get back into binaries. =:^) (Meanwhile, the problem is often that first partial reply. If nobody knows enough to do that first partial reply... it's a stumper! Then of course there's the folks that frequently in innocence, but it sure appears that they deliberately go out of their way to make a good reply difficult, posting in HTML, top posting in replies, asking such vague questions with so little information that it's impossible to answer properly because you can't even figure out the question, etc. That's why, even if I don't know a lot about the subject myself, if I don't see a reply for a bit, I'll often try to be that first reply and hopefully either give them enough info to at least google it, or start the ball rolling with further replies from others, of course asking the OP to help me help them, by NOT posting in HTML, top posting, etc, and by providing more information, where necessary.) -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
