Weeeeell. As I recall (in other words, don't blame me if I'm wrong), the problem wasn't that it couldn't be made to work, but rather than no one could be found who had the time, ability and inclination to make it work. But stopping it being broken was easier. Perhaps you are that person? You certainly seem to be at least one third of the way there. -- Paul Johnson - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.pjcj.net
