(-: In my case, I wasn't even asking for code to solve a whole problem. I just needed a push in the right direction. Several people *did* send code fragments, but I just took the ideas and wrote my own actual code. I see nothing wrong with that .. .in fact I think it is the way one learns. Fumbling around doing something that either doesn't work or is done completely incorrectly doesn't teach a person the right way to do things. : BTW Bill H. did you get any responses providing solutions yet? Yes - several people sent excellent replies by email. I will post a summary shortly. Thanks. -- Bill Heiser heiser@acs.bu.edu, heiser@world.std.com Boston University, Boston MA
