Thanks Steve,
Yes I was using the @ and not the &. Typo there on my part in the post. Although I did afterwards attempt the & for giggles, but still no go.

I tried setting the values to other things besides '' to no avail.

Thanks for the help. Wanted to double check that I'm passing the stinking parms corectly, been beating my head on this for a couple days now.
