Thank You all for the advice and suggestions. Sometimes it is good to know
that I havn't lost it and others are dealing with the same problems.
Two side notes:
1) The staff at both organizations are in love with the software. And are
telling the managers that.
2) Rik I pray that all heals well. I was blessed after a total right
shoulder replacement with a very good recovery.
God Bless all of you and Thank you again,
al
