Thank you so much for replying to my query. I'm gathering the information as best I can. Explanation: I had a number of "glitches" in my income tax preparation and I'm trying to remedy those annoyances while they're fresh in my mind.

It doesn't come easily. for as rank an amateur as I. I'll get the info to the forum as soon as possible.
