Ben...You are amazing...thanks so much...

I checked your response last night at hoome and implemented it immediately
and it worked like a charm.

Funny how you can look at something till cross eyed and just not see whats
going on...someone else has a quick look and sorts it...as Tommy Cooper
would say.... just like that!

Thanks again.
