Thanks, Pavel! This works as expected. The docs say that $timegenerated is "always in high resolution". Is that max resolution seconds? I'm trying to figure out how to just see the value of $timegenerated to see what format it is (I'm assuming HH:MM:SS based on the field statement, but wonder if there's a .XX at the end). Thanks!!! Robert
