Mal,

>I took a loooong break from VFP - for me it was long. Took up baking, golf (don't know if I like it because it takes up at least half a day) , and went to LV. For the first time, I beat the crap out of those BlackJack dealers. I didn't leave a single casino without some of their money ... hehe.

>Anyways, I'm able to enjoy learning and coding again ... THANK YOU. John K was right on the nose though, it was the asthetic portion of the program that I was getting nowhere and frustrated with.

Welcome back -- you certainly sound a bit more refreshed!
