Dave, 

You rock!  I think that will work.  I will have to wait tilli get back to
work- because I left it on my work computer.  I'm in my Excel infancy- so I
appreciate everyone's feedback.  Any suggestions on how I can enhance my
learning of Excel?  I have thought about taking some classes on it.  I do
learn things like this better hands on- and if someone is there to "bounce"
questions or ideas off of.  Anyhow- Thanks everyone for their help!!!! 

I can only hope that I can help when any of you need help as well!
Dallas Stearns
