Hello Hiro, Thanks for the advice. I will first try Jerome's suggestion (which is similar to what you first tried) and then resort to going back to PM4 if I have to. I hope I don't have to because that sounds like a lot of pain :-/ But at least it sounds like this fixed your probelm and therefore I am thankful for additional options.
