Tamar,

Well, you and I have gone the rounds vis a vis the whole current approach (or lack thereof <g>) to education so I suppose we don't need to revisit that though I do feel that it is a component.

I really didn't want to say to Mike that it was because he's a youngster and totally offend him. That's why I didn't mention the age angle. I'll let you deal with an extra teenager. <g> & *gd&rvvffMH*

Mike, should you read this I also need to let you know that I do indeed have a tremendous respect for your VFP knowledge. Perhaps you should just look at me as that crusty old guy in Utah. <g>
