Thanks Scott.  I have tried sticks (and it works) but it doesn't look very good for what I'm trying to show.  The really annoying part about this lines issue is that it doesn't ALWAYS happen.  And i can't seem to find any relation between the times it does save the lines versus the times it doesn't save the lines.

THanks again
