I've started scanning through the 6.0 backend code, and there has to be an
easier way... It might take me a week before I could hack the code and
get it working... Unless somebody could tell me which function in which
file needs to return what...
Thanks for the advice... I'm still digging through the code, but if
there's an easier way, i'd appreicate knowing....
Thanks,
Justin
