Hi Sabahattin, Thank you very much for posting this. I misunderstood Richard the first time when I answered his post, and I was going to reply to the e-mail he sent clarifying his situation, but I saw that you had gotten to it first. I've been quite busy these last few days, so I'm now reading through the e-mails of both yesterday and today, which is why I couldn't reply. Anyway, thanks for your post on this.
