Hey Cor; Yes, your question was answered after I sent my message BUT;
It is ALWAYS relevant to include enough information with your question to help troubleshooting the problem you are looking at. For instance, the problem could have been a bug in the application you were using, and if that had been the case, and delineating which one would obviously been a huge help to you. Enough said and thank you for the reply.
