Two other people gave me the info also, and I thank you all. I think I agree with someone who previously said that this net is worth a million bucks! You people are really great! I also would like to mention that I appreciate when I get multiple responses. It really helps to solve the problem in case you don't understand what to do even after getting the first reply. I'm going to remember this in case I know an answer to a question and think 'someone else' will get back to the person. Peter D.
