Yes, you did send instruction for using the serial interface. (I am sorry if I didn't thank you but please accept my thanks now! :-) If Enabling is selling something that will work with thier product, I'm all for it. In retrospect, I bnelieve Karen wanted something before Christmas, of this YEAR! That being the case, it doesn't appear that she hasmuch choice. Thank you again. KC
