Yes, that would be great, Roselle. Thanks a lot! I'm not trying to hurry you or anything, but I was just wondering if you got my email reply about the Spanish table. I'm asking because I had some problems with my computer, and some of the emails I sent last week apparently never seemed to make it to the people I sent them to. Thanks again. Maria
