Bonnie,

Thank you very much. I actually finally figured how to do it. That is, I have the result I was looking for.

But to be honest, I still have a problem to fully understand the concept of Property Set and Get. I plan to read on it more (in the book on C# I have) tonight. I will read slow and out load if I have to <g>.
