Hey, I just tried that in a test reply... I like that. Thanks for
bringing that to my attention... I've never seen anything like that
before. I'm learning something new with TB... and especially the Editor,
every single day. :o)

Haven't tried any of that as yet... will do tomorrow though. I start a
block of holidays on Wednesday, so I'll have a couple of weeks to really
get to know TB's Editor. Thanks for the replies...
BTW, you don't sound like someone who has only used TB for the past day
or so. :o)
