Or maybe Advisor? I've never written for FoxTalk. My research was done only at the basest level, as I mentioned in my other post. I'll be happy to either the code, if anyone's interested. Doing a more comprehensive set of tests might take some additional thought and design. Again, if anyone's interested, I'll give it a whirl (or maybe someone else can).
