Hi Jim > because frankly I have spent probably somewhere between 20 and 30 hours trying to figure this out over the course of two weeks
Ouch! I'm sorry for the frustration that must have caused, and I admire your dedication in sticking with it. It's good that it was instructive, anyhow. I'm all too familiar with the experience of bashing ones head against a coding wall, and then having the further pain of kicking oneself once the answer has been revealed. I'm glad you'll be making progress again, Best wishes Jeremy. On Sun, Dec 7, 2014 at 8:13 PM, Jim Lehmer <[email protected]> wrote: > That, in fact, did work.
