Hi, Steve.

Thanks for your follow up. Unfortunately right now I'm extremely distracted or I'd be happy to be your "backboard." Not sure I can be much help otherwise :-) But one comment, do definately update to build 415 before you abandon your idea. It's worth the effort downloading the sp (IMO).

Since it's been a few days, it may just be that people missed your first message since hundreds are posted every day. So, you might repost -- after downloading the sp first :-)

Good luck

>I want to thank you again for your help, I really appreciate it. I'm beginning to think, though, that either nothing can be done or that I'm making an extremely elementary mistake somewhere. Either way, no one could know the answer to such problems and it might explain why no one else has responded.
