Ean,

OK - following up on your suggestion, I have gotten some ideas from our 
in-house programmer. Now, I see how I can add a hidden String_Knob in the root 
node. That should work well to carry my Write node name string and I can 
reference it with a toNode call.
...So many things to learn.  (8^\

Thanks!
