I never knew that. I've done it the same way Martin does for 35 years. I just checked it in Jbase and it works. You learn something new every day. Of course, I consider a day a total waste if I don't either learn something new or catch hell about something. As you can guess, I don't have many wasted days. Thanks, Dan!
