Hi John,
It did. If you are wondering why I answered my own question
in this posting, it is because I got your eMail about 30 minutes
before your reply posting showed up on my nntp server. I replied
to my own posting to stop anyone from wasting their time answering
me when I already had the answer -- the polite thing to do.
