No way, Tony. If you think I am going to sign off and miss the next post
from a new subscriber that just might have that one answer I am looking
for, you better think again. Even if you are able to give me a lot of
answers, there are always many more new ones to be answered.

Wrong again, Tony. I will take time to scan every listing that has even
the remotest possibility of answering some of my dead-ends. Basically,
because I do not have any more than just hints of where to look, in many
cases.

Thanks anyway,
