Thanks Ken. I didn't know about this package. BTW, the documentation for hyperref says that you should load hyperref after you've already loaded all other packages because it redefines many internal latex macros. Also, I've read on comp.text.tex that geometry should be loaded as early as possible since many packages depend on various page layout dimensions. Clearly this hasn't caused any problems for you, but I figured I'd mention it. Along with amsmath, geometry, and fancyvrb, I think hyperref is in my top list of groovy latex packages now. Thanks!
