John,

Thanks for the comments.  They confirmed what I though about the
functionality of the feature. I don't have a test system di its difficult
to know exactly how these new features work when you run into them on the
fly.

I totally agree it is really an awesome feature and I for one, look forward
to its further development.

Cliff
