Hi David (Turner),
Glad you posted the solution, even though you would not
have had time to see that the original poster found
his own solution.

It seems to me that someone who asks a question, and then
says "never mind, I found the answer" is simply not sharing.
Someone might see the thread, and think I need that answer or
more likely find the thread in Google and want to know the answer and
it would not be there had you not answered.

You've described precisely how and why *I* read newsgroups when not seeking
specific answers for my own projects.

Thanks for the feedback.
