Hi Rakesh, Isaac & Litty
Thanks for the replies. Since I'm currently already using the
incubator jar for a table, I'll first attempt Isaac's suggestion which
seems least effort-consuming at the moment. If i do need to create my
own panel, I'll try both of your suggestions and update everyone on
the results.

Thanks a bunch all. You guys are really great help in this forum.
