Marvin, Sorry, Access is the one program that I know very little about. Give the list members a day or two to respond to you. Unfortunately, your question is the first access question I've seen on the list since I've been a member. This doesn't mean that you will not find help here. Maybe some one on the list will know where to direct you if we can't help.
