Karen,

I tried it once maybe a year ago and couldn't get it to work either.   I 
followed the same steps as you with the same exact results.   I never 
followed up because I thought maybe I just misunderstood, and went onto 
something else.

 Perhaps Razzak can offer some insight on how it's supposed to work.
