Andreas, You are sooo correct about "messing around"! That is why good documentation is so helpful. I have read the Base guide for LO, and it was helpful for simple applications, but not so helpful for mine. The link you pointed out is new to me, so I will need a few days to digest it all. Thank you for your help!!!
