Thank you for your reply. I'll have to do some searching as I had not
incorporated the Baker line into my Gainer file when the data went astray.
(I seem to have a remarkable ability to destroy mail systems from time to
time and yet have not found a good program for extracting individual
messages to a safer location -- usually a result of the earthlink mail
system wanting to compress the mail file when junk has been deleted.)

I'll try to get back to you "reasonable" soon.

Thanks again for your reply.
