Hi Tony,

Thanks a million for trying to solve my problem.  As I said I was
complicating things for myself and the simple method just did the job for
me.  I kept searching the Help topic and it sparked of a few ideas and so
all is well!

Take care,

Loretta

Hi Loretta

I was trawling around to find the answer to your query!

Bored some experts even!

I knew that there had to be a solution somewhere, somehow!

I often forget that the menus including tools are oftten "life savers" in
many instances!

Glad that you got it sorted and for sharing your findings  with us!

Regards

Tony
