Hi all, many thanks for answering my questions.
Tell me if I'm wrong but I would like to kill this topic now as my question
has been answered. If people are talking about storage can I suggest that
the subject line be changed to reflect what we all are talking about. I am
not trying to be bossie or a moderator, but just trying to stay on topic.
Thanks again to you all!
Daniel
