Sorry Pm, didn't mean to imply I didn't agree with your choice, just that I didn't like it. :) I should have shared your reasons for you for you and saved you the trouble of having to retype them. Still, I know it did cause me headaches, and several others have had trouble with time functions since then also. Perhaps the problem has to do with the lack of documentation. Not sure where to put it though as it's not really a ZAP function any longer.
