Thank you klint !

        I am not a programmer, but I can fully function in "batch files" !
:-)

        I forgot about the routine we had for sending messages at the
command line, and combining a search for the presence of a string to trigger
sending a new message, will work great !

        I'll post the batch, when I find everything, and get it working.

Thanks.

-John
