   I understand what you say. A lot of so called developers really do not
understand
proper code design. There are many reasons for this and my rant would be long<g>.
I beleive you can build into a program many bell switches & whistles, but you
need to
balance them with functionality and proper code design, techniqics. Most do not
know how to save clock cycles, some very basic stuff. I do stand corected about
copy/paste.
I would like to see a new window selected by request. But it is fast.
